Subject: | What status? "Rare to locally common" |

Hi All I have recently encountered a bird species which is described in my Slater Field Guide as being "rare to locally common." I don't understand what this means, and to me, seems to be a contradiction of itself. My understanding of "rare" and "common" don't seem to fit. Could someone please explain to me what this means? Is the bird species I have seen rare, or common? Matt. |
