NO. Not a Latin book A bird book will give you the Latin names
Your doing fine Billy
and now You can see the Swedish name as well
Rördrom Great Bittern Botaurus stellaris
Here is a new bird for You to guess? on
corncrake - crex crex
Beak looks too long for a Crake, looks more like a Water Rail - Rallus aquaticus
Looks OK with me
Vattenrall Water Rail Rallus aquaticus
Got a new one for You all
Red-backed Shrike - Lanius collurio
The bill looks like a Jay or similar, so I'd say after doing a bit of research and matching up the colours, a Siberian Jay - Periscoreus infaustus
Ooooh yes. I'll go along with that My first thought was a Fly catcher.
I would never have got it well done
Lavskrika Siberian Jay Perisoreus infaustus
Well done
Here is something else....
Hmm, that's an interesting one. I would suggest a Black-throated Thrush - Turdus atrogularis.
Yep. I think you are right Rolf.
Sure is
Svarthalsad trast Black-throated Thrush Turdus ruficollis atrogularis
It has the same name in Swedish
Good finding
After spme computer problem I am back again for real
This bird has a name, what could that be ??
Red-shouldered Hawk - Buteo lineatus
I am afraid I have to say no Chocky
Merlin? (Falco columbarius)
- Just thought I'd have a go...
I'll go for Female Hen Harrier - Circus cyaneus
Ah, well! Can't always be right!
(I'd checked female Marsh Harrier first - as I thought that was what it was - but missed Hen Harrier - and went for 'Merlin' instead)
- 'but Rolf was right as usual'....
Oh, Crister! He'll frame your last post and stick it at the top of the main page!
LOL, that's what my ex used to say.
She was of course right.
But it was HOW she said it that mattered, Rolf!
Good answer to the quiz pic though - (said a tad grudgingly!)
, hurry up and beat Rolf on this one !
Caomorant - Phalacrocorax carbo
A not so popular bird here in Sweden
Storskarv Great Cormorant Phalacrocorax carbo
Well done !
and something for the weekend ?
Turnstone - Arenaria interpres
(Please say 'Yes!' )
Yep I agree there with Catherine So called because they turn stone over for their food
Like You guys do, turn every stone to find the answer
Well done Catherine
Roskarl Ruddy Turnstone Arenaria interpres
It was a very short weekend question
so I think I will have to post one more. Hope this ia a "harder nut" to crack.
Firecrest - Regulus ignicapillus ?
(If so, I'm on a roll!)
Lol. Definitely I'll agree with that
Let´s Rock then
Brandkronad kungsfågel Firecrest Regulus ignicapilla
Well done
So a Monday bird ?
Falco columbarius or merlin ... i hope...
Looks like it is Billy
