Hello,
My wife and I did a trip to Uganda during June 2017. This wasn’t a birding trip but rather general safari trip. However, since we are both amateur birdwatchers we did some birding here and there. Most of the birds we could identify but we need some help with the following. Some of the pictures are grainy and heavily cropped but hopefully, an IID could be determined:
1. Taken in Murchison Falls NP. I’m pretty sure it’s a common Kestrel but I would expect that the head would be much paler than the rest of the body.
2. Taken in Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary. Is this an Ashy Flycatcher?
3. Taken in Mweya Peninsula, Queen Elizabeth NP. Is this a female Slender-billed Weaver?
4. Taken in Mweya Peninsula. No idea what this is, maybe some kind of Widowbird, very worn individual?
5. Taken in Mweya Peninsula. No idea what this is, maybe some kind of Snake-Eagle?
Any help on these birds ID will be much appreciated.
Regards,
- Tamir
