If you’ve enjoyed trying to complete our #My200BirdYear challenge in 2017, or if you’ve been watching with interest but biding your time, or if you’re a complete newcomer to Bird Watching magazine, then now’s the time to sign up for #My200BirdYear 2018 at birdwatching.co.uk/my200
The idea’s exactly the same as in 2017 – try to see 200 species of bird during the course of the year. The rest is entirely up to you – you can decide whether to count only birds seen in the UK, or those you see on birding trips (or family holidays) abroad, too.
You can restrict yourself to a local patch or your home county, or set your sights further afield. Whatever you decide, though, we’ll be there to help you along. If you sign up, you get an exclusive email newsletter, with expert tips and advice, plus offers and events, and you join a growing community of birdwatchers sharing their own knowledge, sightings and pictures.
