Updated for the RSPB Saltholme Collared Pratincole, seen by only 5 listers......plus the slightly less exciting Dunlin in Middlesbrough, a Borough tick for John Regan.

Some excellent year listing exploits to report from last year. Paul Hinley equalled the Redcar & Cleveland record with his total of 214 (including his self-found Greater Sand Plover).

The Middlesbrough record was smashed by 3 people, with both Ian Foster and George Randall recording 133 species, while James Hinley returned a count of 122, which in any other year would have given him the new record. It should be noted that all 3 observers could see their total increase by 1 depending on the acceptance or otherwise of Collared Pratincole and 2 juvenile Yellow-legged Gulls. Watch this space!

EDIT: the Collared Pratincole has been accepted, so Ian's total has increased by one.

Updated for the Scopoli's Shearwater, now accepted by BBRC from 2020.

Martin Blick has added Caspian Gull to his Redcar and Cleveland Life list.

Updated for the Brown Booby, which also increased the Borough lists for Hartlepool, Stockton-on-Tees and Redcar & Cleveland.

Slightly less exciting, John Regan added Sandwich Tern to his Middlesbrough list.

Cheers, Graeme

Updated for the Hartlepool Olive-backed Pipit,  the Greatham Creek Rough-legged  Buzzard (a Hartlepool tick for me) and Little Gull on the River Tees (a Middlesbrough tick for John Regan and a new bird for the Borough).

Cheers, Graeme.

Some impressive year-listing feats to report from 2023.

John Regan recorded 243 species in Cleveland during the year, the joint fifth-highest total on record.

Both Jason Birch and Paul Hinley managed 219 species in Redcar & Cleveland, beating the previous record by 4.

And Martin Blick scored 198 species in Stockton-on-Tees,  the second-highest total for the Borough.

Cheers, Graeme
