verreaux's eagle

8719 Himalayan Shrike-babbler

I hope I'm not missing something. It's not too hard a bird to find is it?

No, shrike-babblers are not really hard to find once you're in range. I think the few remaining species just haven't been linked into the game yet. So while we're still on shrike-something, let's clear another of them.

8721. Dalat Shrike-babbler

8721. Dalat Shrike-babbler

Pteruthius annamensis. Pteruthius means red-winged. So here's a bird with very red wings. Not that they are visible in my photo though.

8722 Rwenzori Turaco

 

[dandsblair]

I'll stick with Red-wing / shoulder unfortunately I didn't manage a photo

8723 Ornate Fruit Dove

 

[Jacana]

verreaux's eagle

Hi, nice to see a new player. This species has already been played. Check the first post for rules of the game and a list of species that have been played. Still a few species from Kenya left to be played, so hopefully you will have some good species to contribute!

20. Alpine accentor

8724 Golden-backed Mountain Tanager.

Well, it's ornate, and it probably eats some fruit.

Gold comes in bars, so it seems reasonable to follow that with:

8725 Bar-backed Partridge

8726 Golden-backed Whistler

8727 Goldman's Warbler

When I think of Goldman I think of a king and a crown

Fair enough, but a really brilliant link here would have been Vampire Ground-finch, as in great vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity.

From all this talk of gold and crowns, I'm going to move to another precious metal

8729. Silver Oriole

;-)

Another would have been Sakhalin Grashopper Warbler, although not quite as deep.
