I think the bird currently in database as Bar-tailed Godwit must be linked wrong or something. I'm getting a photo of Richard Bledsoe's that he identifies as a Marbled Godwit and I think he is correct.

Well spotted Joe.

I think the confusion had come from the Latin name that had been entered incorrectly. Everything should be fine now :t:

Jabiru wrong

Please check the image uploaded to Jabiru, it is actually a Black-necked Stork Ephippiorhynchus asiaticus from Asia & Australasia. The real Jabiru Jabiru mycteria is found in South America

Please check Mangrove Kingfisher I am 99% certain it is in fact a Brown Hooded Kingfisher I have mentioned this to the guy who submitted it. He is not 100%convinced could you perhaps research this.
