    Odd passerine from Priorat, Catalonia, Spain

    Thanks guys, sadly I didn't see it any better than the picture shows as (disgracefully) I forgot my binoculars.

    Odd passerine from Priorat, Catalonia, Spain

    Taken on a school trip. Might not be possible to ID due to picture quality, but any ideas appreciated!

    Raptor ID from East London

    Thank you, I will remember to do that next time. The pics were already quite heavily cropped (my camera is terrible) so I was concerned that they would become too pixelated, but can see they come up very small.

    Thanks Tom. I though Goshawk, or possibly Hen harrier (from the first picture), so whoo! I am not as bad a birder as I think! :D

    Raptor ID from East London

    Flying high over my garden last night, about the size of a Buzzard. I have two guesses, neither of which I shall post here, because they will probably be very wrong! What is it?

    Starling?

    I'd say it's a starling but it does look a little odd.

    Help identifying a bird, just outside Cambridge, UK

    Hi Tawny0wl, Your bird is a variation of the standard 'Pigeon'. They were originally bred from rock doves for food (standard feral pigeon and white dove), racing, shows, etc. but have since escaped and interbred with each other to produce some very interesting looking birds.
