Of course my twitcher list is higher but I stopped counting that as my primary list now because I've found that once you really get a good look at a bird enough to enjoy it, the last thing you want is to look at your list and realize your joy in ticking off a true lifer was marred by an ugly twitch.<br />-Anyhow, thats my two cents on the matter! -I know plenty of others who disagree with me, but whatever makes you happy ... do it!Ikehttp://phuketbirdwatching.familyphuket.comnoreply@blogger.com
