    Birding in Vienna

    Thank you! I'll check out Marchegg and try to get there! I've seen failry new Middle-spotted and Syrian WP sightings (2019-2021) at Wiener Prater, Stadtpark, and Schönbrunn using eBird. Donau-Auen Nationalpark/Donauinsel also look good, with more species than most centric hotspots and recent...

    Birding in Vienna

    I'll be staying in Vienna for a few days in August. I would like to ask which are the best places within the city and around for birdwatching. Is it possible to see the White-tailed eagle without going too far from the city centre? I'm also interested in the various species of woodpeckers in...

    Regular b. buteo w/ white markings?

    Regular b. buteo w/ white markings?, Spain Photo taken today in Spain. The white markings it had on the upper part of its wings make me wonder whether it could be something else...even though I am quite sure it is a normal buteo buteo, I wanted to check that and see if I can learn something...

    Egrets in Taiwan

    I was thinking Intermediate for the first one too because of eye gape lenght and bill but I have no previous experience with the species... I know the second one is nearly impossible to tell with this photo, will leave it unidentified. Having seen Great and Little Egrets before, the last one...

    Egrets in Taiwan

    I have these photos from Taiwan last July. They're 3 different birds. I'm not sure about their ID and could use some help. Thank you! (In the second photo I'm talking about the bird in front of the Ibis)

    Aegypius monachus - Aquila chrysaetos?

    Both photos were taken today in Catalonia, Spain. Do you think the first one could be a Cinereous vulture and the second one a Golden eagle?

    Catalonia. I wouldn't like to mis-ID it

    Unfortunately couldn't hear it calling. Just ask for other pics if you need them, I'm just too lazy to upload anything more. May be making a fool of myself but...what do you think it is?

    Catalonia, Spain

    Hey! I've taken this photos this week and I've got the a weird feeling about two of these geese: their beak, plumage tone and even size look quite odd to be greylag, what do you think? Probably it's just a feeling but wanted to ask

    SD or ED?

    Hi all, I want to but a scope, and I'm between the MM3 or the ES 80 from Opticron. Some of you told me it's better to get an ED glass, but is there a big difference between the ED and the SD? I mean, do any of you have any photo comparisons so I can see where's that "enormous" difference that...

    ID please! Catalonia, Spain

    Okay, so I was looking at some photos from 2008 and I've just found this bird. Next to the photo, it says "gull" (I was 8 okay?) I'm too shocked to say it, but it looks like a Black-legged kittiwake...what do you think?

    Extremadura confirmations needed

    2. Crested Lark to me 3. I'll go for the Common Whitethroat, the eyering doesn't look like Sardinian 4. Definitely Iberian. Wow congratulations!

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks all. I'll definitely buy a scope from Kowa or Opticron, and the MM3 seems to be a great option. I was considering the ED50, but I didn't know that Nikon eyepieces are hard to find, and that's another point in favour of the MM3. About the tripod, I already have one that will work well.
