Odd One Out!

[Jos Stratford]

Not so much identify the birds (though I expect this too), but more 'spot the odd one (or two) out'! Not as tricky as my last offering ...I promise!

Na, I don't photo herons - they're boring! ;)

Second left is a Black Stork ?

Correct Sir, and the other one?

I can see two other candidates for being Not White Storks, both of which are roughly central, but I think I'm going to quit while I'm ahead on this one !

Done and dusted this thread, I'll give you full marks Stuart - second left and Tom's smack bang in the middle of the photo bird are indeed both Black Storks. Flock was a couple of days back and, in total, numbered 86 White and 5 Black Storks.

black kite for the one in the lower middle right?

Agree it looks like one in the photo, but that is the second Black Stork, described as smack bang in the middle! No more mystery birds in this photo - just the two Black Storks

Mmmmm, looks like one of them is a melanistic White Stork, and a partial albanistic Black Stork is another, but that's only an opinion.
