What and where Bird Quiz (1 Viewer)

New quiz. Hard quiz. :cat:

(Think "Magic Eye/Where's Wally?") ;)

Find the bird/s in the shots. Then ID them. Give location of bird/s in photo in answer. Point awarded for first to find and identify. Bonus point for each bird I missed, if correctly identified!

The only clues will be World Locations and Time of Year. And the photos will be, hopefully, difficult...if not almost impossible! B :)

(Ah! The POWER! I'm corrupted by it already!) :t:

First location: Monte Toro, Menorca May 2011.

Number of species: 1

I'm going to say Quail in flight half way up towards the right hand side but in all honesty i cant for the life of me see anything resembling a bird in there at all.
 
You're on the right track Sean.
So, I've cropped that section and re-posted it.
Maybe some takers now? Try squinting a bit, and remember the location...

(The whole point of the quiz is to make it as difficult as poss. So, sorry if it seems a bit cruel! There's still a point going on this one, but I'll post another in a bit to keep the "fun" aspect going... ;))

Waccoe! Nice work!

I'll let Balearic Badius Woodchat go.

Yes! Sardie! Easy! Let's make "Where's Birdy...Who's Birdy???" more difficult...

Adam W: 1 point

Waccoe: 2 points B :)
