listing my way

[Leon Bright]

COBirders,

   Joe Roller’s post about “countable” birds is a welcome explanation of listing for those who have not yet been bitten by the bug—or for anyone for that matter.  Personally I belong to the group of listers who keep irregular records and who are memory deficient.  I have found a way to mitigate those short-comings however.  I’ve learned that whenever Brandon Percival points out a rarity to me I ask him whether I have seen that species before.  It works!  He even has my list in his head.
