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 againI will check !

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![]()
Let me assure You that You are closing in.
But the door is still closed
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 timeYou been soo good in finding all my birds.
This could be something special then !
Here we go: Stäpphök Pallid Harrier Circus macrourus![]()
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![]()
A very colourfull bird, think You can guess what it is![]()
