    White Gull. North Yorkshire

    Thanks guys. Now back in civilisation, well Lincolnshire anyway. Apologies to Ritchie Twitchy, I was trying to get this out in case it was something rare.

    Call - Andalusia

    Hearing this call off the patio last couple of evenings. Usually two separate birds, either side of the villa calling at the same time. No views of the bird. Managed to record one of them. I’m assuming a warbler distress call. Any ideas? Thanks Michael.

    Ducks, Florida, Feb 2018

    I've been going through last years photos from Lake Toho in Florida taken in February and came across these. I'm thinking Ring-necked Duck or Greater Scaup (the lattter I realise would be quite uncommon especially inland). Any comments would be welcome. Thanks Michael

    Sri Lanka Raptors

    Thanks Guys. Just got back. Although a family holiday rather than a birding trip, I was surprised of how few birds of prey that I saw. Michael

    Sri Lanka Raptors

    Wouldn’t Crested Goshawk not have that wide terminal tailband? Michael

    Sri Lanka Raptors

    Thought that more likely to expect Crested Serpent Eagle instead as I’ve not come across one yet. Michael

    Sri Lanka Raptors

    Struggling with raptors in Sri Lanka. Two separate birds, first over Dambulla, second over Kandy. Thinking Oriental Honey-buzzard for both, due to pigeon like head. But is this likely due to their rarity? Thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks Michael
