Hi Hugo I live about 3 km from the Darwin CBD, in the suburb of Parap. Hilary Thompson and I started the list when we moved here in 1984, and I seem to remember that by late 1990 we already had over 100 species. It has grown slowly since to 140 species. Best birds are Red Goshawk (diving after Rainbow Lorikeets), Great-billed Heron, and Christmas Island Frigatebird (seen flying over accompanied by Lesser and Greater), plus sundry other species such as Rose-crowned Fruit-dove, Pheasant Coucal, Wandering Whistling-duck, Banded Land Rail which although not rare are uncommon in inner suburbs. I use the same criteria to record birds as you.
