Male and female Blackbird seen but not at the same time: record as 1 or 2 Blackbirds? EOM

Hi record as 2 as long as they were within the hour you done your count.

I considered that they only wanted you to record those you had seen at the same time to exclude the little chap who keeps nipping back to the garden for a top up. I counted him and her blackbirds, black caps and finches, although I only saw the finches on the ground together.

Definitely 2 as you can be 100% sure that they were different birds! Thanks for taking part!

That's why I knew for sure I could count both of my Nuthatches even though they came one after the other. ;-))
