come on Jurij, are you just too lazy to have a try? I wait for the result facing the deadly truth being 90% wrong as in former cases - so why do you give up?

71: another hint related to pop culture; Keanu knows these
72: not as small as Clangula. At all.
73: this is a mega in Finland.
74: this cosmopolitan breeds in trees.
79: size matters also.
80: breeds in Europe.

Points 71 (Keanu supposedly knows female Reeves) & 76 to Jurij.
73: rusticolus breeds in Finland. This one does not.

80 Fratercula arctica

 

[very boring banned member]

Lou is very close with 80.
74 info: Nominate race breeds in the Palearctic, carolinensis with paler breast-band in North America, ridgwayi in the Caribbean and cristatus from Australasia. Birds from the Philippines to northern Australia are sometimes separated as melvillensis and those from New Caledonia as microhaliaetus but these races are not universally recognised.

74 is Pandion haliaetus
80 Hydrobates pelagicus
