Re: Do you have any queries?

Marcell, we would be getting into murky territory if we disclosed those kind of details wink what we can say is, if contestants would like to post up their totals for others to "chase", they are welcome to do so in these forums.

(I actually typed this out ages ago and then forgot to hit submit as I am immersed in studying the definition and faces of power in environmental politics LOL)

Re: Do you have any queries?

Am I allowed to mail a cd/dvd with all the photos together with the entry list on it to you?

I am a little bit worried that not all my emails are going through. I already had one now coming back with an error. neutral

Re: Do you have any queries?

WTM - I just chatted to Jay!  wink She is also happy with your idea but you will have to post us EACH a cd/dvd!

Jay doesn't need the excel sheet as well, you can just send that as well as a cd/dvd to me.  The only BUT here is that the cd/dvd MUST reach us by the cut off date, which for this contest is 30 April! If it gets to us after that, we will not be able to accept it as the rules clearly state NO late entries, ok!! wink

If you'd like to do this then send us a PM and we will send you our postal addresses with pleasure! big_smile

You can always just then e-mail the last of your birds as you see them, the last few days before cut off! smile

Re: Do you have any queries?

What about birds like the Common Ostrich and Common Peacock? Will they be accepted if seen out of their allowed areas?
