Twitching, as it is known by its followers, is a style of birdwatching which involves collecting sightings of different species of bird. When geographical and time limits are set to the pastime it becomes a competitive sport. It comes as surprise to most people that in a year in Great Britain, over 300 species of birds may be seen. This diary shows in notes and illustrations by the author what those birds were for him in 1980 and it concentrates on the rarer species. C3B. Fine/Very Good.
