The score is additive, so this week's points simply add earned points on from the previous week's scoreboard. Since you didn't participate this week, no additional points were added to your score. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The score board adds up from previous weeks, and Blue Jay is a member not the bird. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Posted September 24, 2021 Author Share Posted September 24, 2021 This week's quiz includes multiple species! The rules apply to each species! You get 3 points for each species guessed correctly, though I won't disclose the number of species in the quiz. So, for example, if there are 6 species in a photo and you correctly guess all of them, you get 18 points!! Since there are three individuals, please refer to them by their position in the photo so I know what answer to assign to which individual. As usual, DM me your answers, preferably in the same thread you have used to correspond with me previously. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quiscalus quiscula Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 I was so sure that this week's quiz was a Saltmarsh Sparrow- Savannah only lurked in the back of my mind. Problem when using only an Eastern field guide to identify the bird- western subspecies aren't mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For now, though, I'll just have to remember to use my old Western field guide as well as Eastern. In combination they are basically equivalent.
