Hey Guys,
Just a quick question with regards to reading AL's post about the Slaty Backed Gull found in London. I was just wondering who it was who confirms a sighting of a mega rare bird in Britain and what proof is required? Does there have to be more than one person to see it etc before it becomes an officially recorded visitor? And what happened before the days of mobile phones and email/pager alerts etc?
Any info appreciated :)
Cheers

Hi-
ref the animkated birders- I know some like that but the research wasnt very good on the clip.
Personally I think the SBG has a good chance of making it but there are some oddities to be ironed out.
