    Adelboden April.

    Had a great time in Switzerland. Alpine Choughs were everywhere and Black Redstarts were seen around Adelboden and Snowfinch were often seen at Geils. The Highlight of the trip was a juvenile Lammergeier at Haanenmoos and an alpine ibex at Englistenalp.

    Adelboden April.

    What birds/wildlife am I likely to see in Adelboden in early April and are there any good places in this region? I can’t seem to find much info on the wildlife of the area but I appreciate the "skiing" may be the reason for this Thanks Hadden

    Need IDs for warblers, central Maine USA

    I would say 3 and 4 are Blackburnian Warblers. Not yet sure about 1 & 2.

    No, the meads doesnt normally attract waders when flooded. Early May this year the Meads flooded and despite extensive serching for waders over two days I only saw 1 lapwing fly over. However when the meads do flood they do look perfect for waders. Perhaps if the meads flooded during the autumn...

    Young bird ID N. France.

    Hello all, I would love an Id on this young Bird that I found on the floor in the wooded area of marquenterre. I think its a Young Yellowhammer but I have no experience of young buntings, so I am not confident of this. Thanks Hadden

    I did go down to Baddow Meads to day but I didnt see any Kingfishers. However further up the river I did see a brief falcon sp. that was probably a Peregrine.

    Sorry for another Mipit, tree pipit Id thread. I saw this pipit in the Deer park reserve near Skomer and I wondered what it was. I thought at the time Tree pipit but upon reviewing my photos I am now not sure and I am starting to think that this is a Meadow pipit. Please could some one confirm...
