County Listing


Last updated 3rd February 2012

The Leicestershire & Rutland list currently stands at 316 (307 since 1941, when LROS was formed). Latest additions: Black Kite & Glossy Ibis. All lists are as submitted by the observers concerned, should only include species on Categories A & C (see County checklist), and be based on current BOURC taxonomy.

We would like to make this list as complete as possible - anyone not included is welcome to send their total (and updates please) to There is no 'qualifying level' for inclusion, nor is it in any way a competition, or meant to be at all serious, or indeed important. If you want to have your list included here, please send it in, but if not, no-one's going to force you!

Observers marked with an asterisk have not sent any updates recently; their lists are therefore probably inaccurate. † - observer no longer resident in the county.
