Amazingly rook is a new species for me at the Flash. Who would have thought that it would take me 40 years and I would see 173 species before rook at the Flash? Either I must have just not bothered recording them or perhaps I didn't look properly at medium sized black birds flying over and dismissed them as crows. For a large part of that 40 years I wasn't interested in keeping a flash list so I guess that I probably just didn't bother.
