latin is far harder im telling you... :flowers:

Your doing fine Billy :thumbsup:

Yes Billy, well done. Don´t worry about the Latin. It´s there because some bird do look the like but have a different name. In Latin it´s easier to separate them:)


Turturduva European Turtle Dove Streptopelia turtur:thumbsup:

Here You have the Swedish, English and Latin :D

dig deep in just glad i dont have to put it into three languages esp early in the morning even english is tough...:)

Well, here is something for You to take a guess? at:thumbsup:

that was my fifth choice lol...

Nope :eek:

To both of You :014:

Hen harrier Circus cyaneus

Well it definitely looks like a Buzzard, with its light colouring and dark area on the body, I'll go for the Rough legged variety - Buteo lagopus.

I think it's a buzzard too

I agree with that Rolf I think you are right

Yep :)
