    UK Iceland Gull

    I photographed this Iceland Gull today (04/01/2017) in West Yorkshire. At the time it crossed my mind that the primaries didn't seem to be as pure white as I would have expected to see and the mantle colour perhaps a shade darker than it should be. Only when looking at the pics I'd taken could I...

    House Finch? UK

    Apparently photographed on a garden bird table in Methley, West Yorkshire on 29th April. Looks like a House Finch but can it be confirmed by this one pic? No mention of rings and it was only seen the once. Dave

    UK raptor - May

    This bird caused much confusion several years ago and was never sorted. I don't expect any resolution from the only two pics which are in existence of it but I would welcome any comments. Dave

    UK raptor

    I had this bird from yesterday down as a big Sparrowhawk, but looking at the pics now I'm thinking it looks wrong somehow. Any comments appreciated Dave

    UK Skua

    I've had the following pic passed on to me of a bird photographed by a non birder a couple of weeks ago in West Yorkshire. Is it possible to specifically id this bird from this shot? My initial thoughts were Arctic Skua but I'm not 100% Dave

    UK gull

    Hi, This morning (in West Yorkshire, England) I was watching a couple of fairly distinctive 3rd/4th year Yellow-legged Gulls (with yellow legs) mixed in with a group of LBBs. They were associating with the bird pictured which matched them for mantle colour but its legs were pinky/grey and the...

    UK Rock or Water Pipit

    Fairly happy at the time with what I thought to be an inland Rock pipit this morning (no obvious supercilium and no white outer tail feathers to eliminate Water) but on looking at a few very poor record shots I'm now not too sure. Lakeside habitat also probably better for Water?
