Thats still around 70 species short of what Gulfnews quoted !
Is it correct that 420 species were recorded last year in Abu Dhabi ??

Up for that Tommy ! However a question, is that the first two rounds or the first two drinks ?? ;)
Nick - done !

Went on a Swallow and Pratincole twitch , failed on both counts I believe :(
1 Sand martin sat with about 20 Barn Swallows contrasted against a very white sky had me going for a few mins, but...
