I think the original email used the tem "birdwatcher" not "birder". I would say 
that all RSPB members count themselves birdwatchers, hence the "statistic" is 
OK.

But many would not necessarily be birders - they would not even have heard of 
the term as it is not really in general public use. In the UK at least, 
"birder" definitely implies more dedication and seriousness than "birdwatcher".
