Not to mention that half of us will be ticking the Dodo in 30-48 years!!
I'd rather see them now..... But they'll never look as good as they do in
Africa!! Which I have seen.

Whether one counts them or not is a matter of personal preference - however
it is important that people record such things (if they are going to record
sightings at all) else it becomes hard in later years to track the spread of
such species. There seems to be a tendency in some places to only record
"natives" and ignore everything else.
