Please - in hope for locals or those who are familiar with Greenlands :smoke:
Thank you - f.

Sorry, not familiar with Greenlands :-C

However, I don't think your birds are GWF as well. 1cy orange-billed Whitefronts may not be all that uncommon:

Personally I would like to see at least somewhat darker birds with narrow tailbands or, better still, a cracking adult.
