Trivia alert! This time it's new birds for Cleveland post-1974, when the county was formed. There have been 88 firsts in the period, though as expected it's getting harder; there were 57 in the 1st half but only 31 in the 2nd. Full details at: https://www.teesmouthbc.com/forumtbc/index.php?topic=9773.0 @teesbirds1

In all, 71 different birders have been responsible for the 88 'firsts', though only 13 people have found 3 or more. The top three are Richard Taylor (6), Tom Francis (12) and Martin Blick (15). Hopefully the listing on the website will bring back some great memories for us all!
