    Vultures - South Africa

    Thank you. Oddly that is the image that I'd IDed as a White-backed Vulture but someone in SA was questioning it, and suggested it was a Cape Vulture due to the white around the iris, interesting to see what others think.

    ID Help - Aruba - June - Terns

    Thanks wheatearlp, I'd not considered that and I think you're right. My initial thought was to ignore Sandwich Tern as they have black bills, but obviously I'm wrong.

    ID Help - Aruba - June - Terns

    Just returned from a trip to Aruba and managed to ID most of the birds I saw but I am struggling with the Terns. They have Royal Terns and I'm thinking the 1st is a Royal Tern and the 2nd looks like an Elegant Tern which are accidental for Aruba. Any help appreciated Kevin
