Four identifications needed. There is a Ruff, I think and a wagtail, not sure on this one, I think a female yellow from Frampton March Jul 17. There is a nice back of a bird in the Lake District in May 17 , is it a linnet and then two swans , from a long time ago, cannot remember where or when, are they bewicks or Whoopers ? Thanks Guys

Dunnock for #3 for me - it doesn't have Reed Bunting's grey rump, mantle 'tramlines', nor correctly patterned tertials. The displaced tail feather just looks pale trom transmitted light, it isn't white.


As an aside, there's also a few Teal and a Wigeon on the bank behind the Whooper Swans.

Agree completely and the shape of the bird plus the mantle pattern is just right too.
