    Curlew or not? SW Turkey

    Hi all, A friend sent me this photo and am unsure as to whether it is a curlew or not. It is a poor photo and it was taken in strong sunlight. So it may be the effect of this that it looks so light coloured. He seemed to think it was a white ibis but have never heard of one here, although I...

    Id Please SW Turkeu

    Hi, First apologies for quality of photo, it was take off of a moving boat as we travelled up a channel towards the beach. At first when I looked at the camera screen I thought this was a black headed bunting but looking at the beak I am not so sure as it looks too long and slender in the photo.

    Bird Id Southern England.

    Hi all, your help required again. Asking for a friend not the best of images as the sun has washed out some of it. Thought this may be a pipit or maybe a dunnock with a lot of the colouring washed out, but am sure someone will be able to help.

They swirl about almost like starlings before dropping out of the sky to roost. They look as thought they are sparrow size and indeed may well be sparrows but I...

    Sparrowhawk confirmation.

    Hi, at first sighting I thought this was a sparrowhawk but a friend thought it may be a gos due to size. Also there was a confirmed sighting recently of a goshawk nearby. I believe the barring is too heavy to be the latter, so would welcome confirmation. Thanks

    Is this a Pygmy Cormorant SW Turkey

    Saw this today whilst having lunch by the river in Dalyan and it looked very small and different to the cormorants I normally see here and so I wondered if it may be a pygmy cormorant.
