1000 Bird Observations

1 000 observations on birds
was reached on Monday 28 May 2012 at 21h27 with Boontjiepit's observation of Macaroni Penguin at Southermost Tip of Africa.

This follows hot on our heels of having exceeded the number of bird species in the subregion
with observation 956
on Friday 25 May 2012 at 17h09 with magrietb's observation of Water Thick-Knee at Kleinmond lagune.

These are truly Milestones! Although our last terrestrial vertebrate group to reach their species target, it is our first vertebrate group to exceed 1000 observations.

To everyone who contributed to this achievement: Thank you very much! Keep the data rolling in!
