Indeed a good looking bird, strong and wild !
Stäppörn Steppe Eagle Aquila nipalensis :thumbsup:
Again...:)
Here is a new bird for You.
Grey-headed Woodpecker - Picus canus
Hmm, difficult one, as the photo doesn't show much colour, but by the black markings on the face, I'd put it as a Green Woodpecker - Picus viridus.:)
I thought that but it seamed a bit dumpy but your probably right Rolf :)
It´s more gray than green :)
Gråspett Grey-headed Woodpecker Picus canus :thumbsup:
Well spotted Chocky :D
:acclaim: I thought it was but as Rolf said a bit difficult :)
Yep it was a rather bad picture so it was very well done finding the tight bird.
Well, this picture is better I think.
Twite - Carduelis flavirostris
Right You are :thumbsup:
Vinterhämpling Twite Carduelis flavirostris
In Swedish it is a Winterbird, must be happy now, very cold and more snow coming tomorrow :eek:
Winter bird here I think
Here is a new bird :)
Can only be one bird, it's a long-tailed Tit - Aegithalos caudatus (Northern Race), ours down here have a darker head with stripe.:)
Beautiful isn't it.? Just lacks the Mohican Hairstyle.
Stjärtmes Long-tailed Tit Aegithalos caudatus :thumbsup:
Nice picture, no tail :) Well done !
and now for something else, really :)
Looks like my old pal the Red Kite Milvus milvus.:)
I have to go along with Rolf there :)
Röd glada Red Kite Milvus milvus :thumbsup:
Nice one !
Got this one for You :)
White-tailed Eagle - Haliaeetus albicilla
Beak looks more like a Kestrel - Falco tinnunculus.
I thought that but for the grey head
May be it's a lesser Kestrel
Lesser Kestrel - Falco naumanni
Sorry but I must say No ! :eek:
Hobby - Falco subbuteo
Sorry Chocky:crying: :confused::D
