    Skylark or not Skylark ?- thats the question

    Skylark or not Skylark ?- thats the question :) Why am I asking? - it seems the bird has contrasting black median coverts, quite bright top (mantle, wing), short bill , and delicate lines on the side of the breast. Maybe some southern lark ? I wish :) Poland, Podhale, today

    Herring Gull?

    Hi - The Gull with such a clear window on primaries can only be a Herring gull ? (in the 3rd calendar year?)

    Gull with an enlarged white patch on the wing

    Yes of course - mirros, I couldn't remamber the word :) Thanks - pale parts are visible (imo) especially on pic 6126, but maybe that are sun reflections. My hallucinations were perfectly explained 😄. Great thanks!

    Rock pipit

    I will write briefly - due to the distinct white eye ring and the lack of a distinct eyebrow, I suspect rock pipits. Two different birds in the photos. Place - Poland, Podhale, date: beginning of September. What's your opinion?

    As in the title - I will add that the date is August, Poland, Podhale.

    another gull - mixed one ?

    Many thanks as always!! I will also ask about features such as a dark belly and a striped tail - should we not pay too much attention to them?
