Hi all
this latest map prompted by Martin Perks never having seen one in Dar yet it features in the Dar guide.
clearly this population in Dar is due to releases (traders just release birds rather than continue to feed them when there are no customers) and escapees from the bird trade.
with only 4 or 5 potential ID errors beyond the edge of the range this map shows well the distribution of this species.
as we approach the 1 million record many of the month gaps shown here within the core range do not really cause us any concerns.
BUT WE WOULD STILL LIKE TO FILL THEM WITH POSITIVE DATA. !!
trust you all had a good break over Easter and had your bins and note books out.
