Us birders in Warwick (we are but a few) welcome a challenge and have decided to try to achieve at least 100 species of birds within a 2 mile radius of Old Square, Warwick during 2022. Based on limited habitat and a combination of urban and busy semi-rural spaces, with no open areas of water or wetland this is a real challenge but we achieved the 100 on 07/05/2022.The Rules
Any bird heard or seen within the radius shown. The person reporting the bird must be 100% sure of the ID, preferably with a record shot of any unusual sighting.
