Hi Sky

I'm new to this. How do the challenges work? Do I pm my guesses or self-mark?

Thank you for the new challenge Sky!

Welcome to this topic Highland! You are going to enjoy it so much!

You PM Sky with your answers, and he will PM your results to you. At the end of the week, Sky puts up the answers on the forum so that you can see where you went wrong, if you didn't score 100%.

Why not participate in the Bird ID Challenge as well? It is great fun, and one learns a lot!

Agreed -

My average is only 35%...but who cares??

It's a hobby we all love, and on this forum we get to share it - doesn't get much better than that...

Welcome, Highland!

Thanks Hilda and Huntsman.

My answers are in. So let's see how it goes.

I look at this every week and then I realize I'm not even a duckling yet, I'm still an egg!!!!!!

Hi supermongoose
Just give it a try and you will be suprised at how much you know

This is another challenge for the hatchlings

DEpending on how many answers I receive I will do more of these

Ok Sky, this one for hatchlings looks like a can do it, I'll try the one for ducklings too...but that might take a while....

Do both Super Mongoose! You will be surprised how many of them you will ID correctly!

Welcome Highland and Super Mongoose

Wonderful to have more Ducklings on board

Enjoy



Once you begin you realise how much fun it is and then you will be hooked

Thanx Hilda and Sharifa!

Ok, I've posted the hatchlings to Sky.

Busy with the ducklings and you're right, it's a lot of fun!

Until when can I pm the Sky16 answers?

Hi Super Mongoose

Glad you are hooked

You can PM until the day Sky posts his next challenge. #17 was posted on Thursday evening so you have a week to answer them.

If you need more time just give the teacher an apple or maybe

PM him to ask for a day or a few more hours.

OK - So my first foray resulted in 4/10 for Sky 17 and 7/8 for the Hatchling challenge. Was a lot of fun and looking forward to the next one.

Ok guys, I've sent in my ducklings (and hatchlings) to Sky, it took me all night, did not sleep a wink..

It's turns out to be more addictive than chocolate and ice cream!!
