    bird call Netherlands

    I went swimming again today, because of the weather. And of course I went swimming outside, in a lake, and not in a swimmingpool. Very natural area, with lots of natural things. And I've seen a lot of birds today ^^. But there is one I can't identify. It was sitting in a bush next to the water...

    Kruger Park ID required, please

    South Africa, I'm sorry but Krugerpark sounded like a German word to me :S so I focused on the bird and not the place. But maybe it's some sort of South African version of the serin, I dunno I don't know anything about South African birds. Apologies for being a bit dumb! and good luck for...

    gull, Netherlands

    Yesterday I saw a gull I can't identify. I went swimming, and there were lots of black-headed gulls and common terns. Then I saw one gull that didn't look like one of the other birds. It's tail had a different shape than the other gulls. Black-heads have straight tails, and their tails are...

    falcon Zante

    Wild guess, but maybe a red-footed falcon? The bird on the last two photographs looks kinda blue, male red-footed falcons are blue. But are you sure all of them were falcons? Photograph nr. 2 shows a bird with rather round wings, falcons have pointy wings if I'm not mistaken,

    Juvenile Reed Bunting? Halesowen Area, UK

    I'd say it looks more like a juvenile European goldfinch, reed buntings have more stripes on their heads, like an eye-brow stripe and stripe down their cheek. The bill looks very much like a goldfinch bill, long, strong and pointy. Goldfinches have more dots on their chest, and their feet are...

    Birdsong Apps Disrespectful to Birds

    Question. This also happens in the wild right? Not the apps. But same species make the same noises, sing the same songs. So lets say I'm a bearded reedling and I'm having a wife and a nest. But then a fellow bearded reedling passes by on my territory. It makes the same noises as I do, and it...

    Pica pica logo desing HELP?

    Pica pica logo design HELP? So there's this student society thingy in my university. We're new, and we have decided to call ourselves Pica pica. First of all because of magpies, because they're smart. We're part of the technical faculty within the university. We're all kinda smart. Also, most...

    Vanellus vanellus

    a few months ago I made this drawing. Because lapwings are the best :D they're my favourite, it's because of them that, when I was six years old, I started bird watching and drawing. Lapwings really changed my life, and my way of looking at the world around me. I see everything, because of the...

    A friend has found a gull

    maybe it's too young to fly, gulls need to learn how to fly. if it's muscles aren't developed (is develop a pwoper word?) enough, it won't be able to fly. it should just try and learn, and learn how to fly in no time ;)

    Sparrow? Grosbeak?

    yeah I know, but I didn't know there were finches that looked so much like those we have :S so I assumed it was one of ours. excuse moi pour la mistake
