Really got listing going again with an end of year count of 889 species, BUBO carried out some fantastic work adding pan species listing to the rankings helped sort out my lists with taxonomic updates, synonyms species, my dyslexic Latin and the addition of my one cyanobacteria (also adding several species I have seen but never added to lists). Birding year list of 146 was my best total since 2012, with the addition of Lesser Grey Shrike and Issy Wheatear to my BOU list. Trips to Lanzarote and Mallorca added to my European and Spanish totals. This year was my best year for fungi, arachnids and diptera with hemiptera equalling 2006, I had 38 new fungi and 13 new arachnids. Highlights have to have been getting abroad again especially to the Canary Islands and seawatching at Porthgwarra. Also Montagu’s Seasnail and Many Eyed Flatworm, I've added a few celestial objects too (Saturn and Neptune added to my Spanish list!). No new fossils this year though. 2024 listing now on BUBO PSL new site.
