Dirty (?) Lesser Whitethroat
Hi everybody,
Any idea about the origin of the pink spot on the base of the bill? http://www.birdforum.net/gallery/sho...6/ppuser/54311

Slight feather loss showing the bare pink skin and possibly due to infection or rubbing.

Hi Nigel,
I haven't seen any Levant Sparrowhawk. Usually the arrive here in the first days of May. As usual, I will start a new thread on this topic (after they will arrive here). Cheers,
