Hooded Merganser - Lophodytes cucullatus
Well, close but not exact :)
Non of the other Mergansers look like it and it's not a Wood duck or a Golden Eye so I can't even guess. Rolf will have to
Perhaps a name problem again :) I will check !
Hooded Merganser (Mergus cucullatus) :thumbsup:
Kamskrake][Hooded Merganser][Mergus cucullatus
:)
It seams to have two names again:)
eNature: FieldGuides: Species Detail
Here is a special breed :)
Ivory Gull Pagophila eburnea ?
I reckon it's an Iceland Gull - Larus glaucoides.:)
Vitvingad mås. yes Rolf it is. :thumbsup:
Here is a new one for You all !
Lesser Kestrel - Falco naumanni ?
Sorry Chocky I must say No to that :)
Hmm, can't see anything which has that light plain underside.:)
Red-footed Falcon - Falco vespertinus ?
No, it is not a Falco:thumbsup:
Long-eared Owl - Asio otus previousl ?
Not long nor short eared:D. No even an owl :)
Oh :D It juts has a look of an owl :-rolling
Is it a brahminy kite (juvenile) Haliastur indus ?
No, this is not a juvinal /delinquints/ I think :-rolling

Booted Eagle - Aquila pennata ?
Not an eagle :)
No too small. It's trying to think of a bird that colour :)
Yes, the color is a good start. What color is it ? Compare it with the place where they usually flies. They are not that common in Sweden :thumbsup:

Marsh Harrier - Circus aeruginosus
Now You are closing in :)
Almost there now !
Montagu's Harrier - Circus pygargus
The only one I can find (and it isn't in any of my books) which may have the same underbody colouring is the Northern Harrier Male - Circus cyaneus.
Looks like you have found it Rolf.
It's the eyes. They look like an Owls some how.
Well done :thumbsup:
Let me assure You that You are closing in.
But the door is still closed :thumbsup:
BTW, this picture was taken during sunset, might have something to do with the colors :)
Hen Harrier -Circus cyaneus ?
It's not simply the colours Cris, it is the lack of pattern on the underside also, so have to concede here, have exhausted my research material.:)
Me too Cris. Sorry :)
ell it was just about time :) You been soo good in finding all my birds.
This could be something special then !
Here we go: Stäpphök Pallid Harrier Circus macrourus :thumbsup:
Ahh, would never have guessed that, must have been very colourful light conditions.:)
The next one is an easy one I think but the picture is so funny that I couldn´t resist it :thumbsup:
A very colourfull bird, think You can guess what it is :thumbsup:
