2014 VicTwitch Record

Dear Birding Aus Community, I’m just about to begin the final stretch of my VicTwitch journey with only 4 months to go. In the last 243 days, I have managed to see 353 different species of bird in Victoria. With only four months left, I have exactly 40 species to go in order to reach my target of 393 species and beat the Victorian Big Year Record. As long as I see 10 new species per month the record should be secure. In order to achieve my goal, I’m going to need help from the birding community with any sightings that may be of interest. I am ready to chase any species, anywhere in the state and at any time. You can see my current list and an approximate list of target species on my blog! Species I am particularly interested in are Black Bittern, Cape Gannet, King Quail, Red-chested Buttonquail, Brown Cuckoo-dove, Black-eared Cuckoo, Ground Cuckooshrike, Australasian Figbird and of course, any vagrant or other tough species! You can contact me at any time via the details on my blog. http://jamesmustafabirding.blogspot.com.au All the very best and happy birding to you all!
