Steve, welcome to the Forum - previous discussion on this Forum has established that, for recording purposes, individual species totals are of far more value than a general list of just species seen. It is a much better, but basic, way of monitoring population dynamics in specific areas. Having said that, anything is better than nothing!

Hi Stuart
Thanks for the welcome, the list i get is from Simon Wilson from Frampton it is the list of birds seen at the Marsh through the day,
i would like too to see a count of the birds but i cant expect Simon to count the birds as he is working there, he does count the main species for me but the others are just what was seen and where.
