Here is a possibility: In settings on your account you can export your data to a CSV file. A CSV file is similar to and Excel spread sheet, so in theory it should have a listing of all photo ID links. A estimated total of 20-25K is one big spread sheet. I never had the courage to try this :)
Not that I'm aware of, just gives you your spotting count. If you usually post 5 or 6 pictures per spotting, then that number sounds about right!
Ashley, is there any way of knowing how many pictures I have posted, without going through each spotting and counting? Just curious as I think I have posted between 20-25K so far!
Sounds good, thanks for that link ashley!
Yes, Caleb :) Here's some birder lingo, though I haven't heard most of these before, and "lifer" is generally used in all forms of nature, not just birds :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitchers%2...
Gotcha, thanks james, I might just start using that term, ;)
Thanks venus, the Lifer thing is a first time spotting as I was told.
Congrats on your lifer and patch, james! So, ashley, trying to pick up on the "Birder lingo" as well, does lifer mean a species that you haven't seen before? Correct me if i'm wrong...
Thank you Ashley and Daniele. It is the presence of the serious spotters and nature lovers like yourself that makes this "addiction" so much fun!
Congrats on your Deep Roots patch James!
Congrats again! I've been here for 2 years and 3 months, and you have more than twice the number of spottings I have :)
Thanks Ashley, learned the lingo from one of your postings. Asked what it meant and was told by another spotter! Also got my Deep Roots patch today. 1 year and counting!
Awesome, congrats! I see you are up with the birder lingo now ;) Canvasback are something I have seen very few of, neat ducks!
Thanks Ashley, Lifer on the Canvasback for me though! :-)
Lesser scaup, James, not ring-necked duck :)
