Notes:
A 'site' may be either a recognised birding locality - eg Covenham Res, Kirkby Pits - or a 'local patch'. For the former, report highest monthly sightings even if you only visit once or twice a year; for the latter, the site should be visited on average at least twice a month. Sets of recording forms, listing all the 'monthly max species' are available for anyone working a local patch.
