Hello,
Is it possible to age this Little Grebe? I photographed this bird in Sussex yesterday, more views are available.
There's a resident pair on the small pond and they raised four young this year. All of them seemed to disappear several weeks ago and yesterday, this bird swam out of the...
Agreed, blackcap. Might look a little bit like a nightingale in this photo but a nightingale's tail would be wider, red(ish) with buff undertail coverts. Also, a nightingale's feet are pink, not black.
Two pages - really?? A perfect example of a chiffchaff for the reasons already mentioned...PP/short-winged, no prominent supercilium, etc. etc.... 15.!
Right ok, if you can't put it off, maybe one a day would be better in my opinion...as little disturbance as possible. Great that you care about the bird (this one is the female) and her chicks. :t:
Sounds about right. They're usually about 14 cm. One of my favourite birds. Getting very rare in the UK. Make sure you don't disturb the bird, it's important the eggs stay warm...maybe you could put the work off a little longer, maybe till the chicks have hatched?
I'm posting this on behalf of a friend. This raptor was seen flying close to the marsh at Sandwich, Ma today. Help with ID would be appreciated, thank you.
