Pacific Gull, Birdlists and Biodiversity

I agree with your last point on subspecies Tim - it is unfortunate that C&B
do not list ssp as many organisations and birding databases recognise only
the C&B species and so we are not recording any ssp information in most
cases. Not sure how we solve that problem though!
