 A few teams have always done their twitchathon by bike - it would be 
good to see a non-fossil-fuel category in each State event.  The 
totals would be reduced but we'd all get some exercise!!

Is there not an armchair version run in some places?

 Hi All,  I believe we should seriously think about a new format for 
the
Twitchathon which under its present format encourages participants 
to burn
up large amounts of fuel in an attempt to count the most species. 
This will
be looked on as very irresponsible by others, after all the primary 
reason
for having the Twitchathon is to raise funds for bird conservation.
