    Which buzzard species? tricky buteo.

    Hello! This picture was taken by someone else who identified this bird as a Black kite. Now, it definitely is a buteo but I can't make out which, common or long legged? This is the only pose. You can see three babies in the nest too. So, what is it?

    Hooded crane in Pakistan!? Mega rarity?!

    This lone bird was sadly hunted a week ago in KPK province, Pakistan. This is the first record fro Pakistan and probably most eastern record in Asia!!Is there any reason why this bird would perform such a huge distance migration!?

Our state of aviculture is worse and captive breeding i.e providing supply and demand is not possible and so are our wildlife authorities. They do not even care what is being sold in the wildlife trade...
