    Raptor near Debre Markos (Ethiopian Highland)

    Indeed this bird looks like the one from Debre Markos. Where did you take it? Season? I could not find a similar pic in the net nor in a book.

    Raptor near Debre Markos (Ethiopian Highland)

    There exists no record of Common Buzzard south of Egypt and I saw lots of vulpinus passing the area much earlier. But I think it could well be a dark morph of Augur if there exists a dark morph of this species. Just in the vicinity, I saw a pair of Adults.

    I found this Buzzard (i can`t think of anything else) near Debre Markos on the 25 of mai 17. My guess dark morph of European Honey Buzzard.

    Good Morning Jean Francois, can you explain to me why 1 and 2 are Ethiopian rather than Stout C.? According to my books has Ethiopian no black streaking in the brown crown.

    LBJ in Ethiopia

    In Simian Mountain NP there are two different Cisticola: Stout and Ethiopian C. Could the first two pics be a Stout Cisticola and the second pic the Ethiopian Cisticola?

    LBJ in Ethiopia

    I have not much hope for the identification of this bird. Is also a bad pic but maybe a crack in Bird-ID will be able. Simian Mountain nearly 3000m altitude 14.5.17

    Thanks for the two comments. The only thing is, that it would be out of range (according to Birds of Africa south of the Sahara)

    Cisticola in Ethiopia

    About 30 km east of Metama in dry scrub, I found this Cisticola and I am not shure about identification. Croaking, Stout or Ethiopian?

    Raptor near Metama (Sudan border to Ethiopia)

    At first sight, I thought a Dark Chanting Goshawk but then I saw a Pic of an Ovambo Sparrowhawk and now I am not shure about my first ID.

    Cisticolas near Al Gadarif, Suidan

    This was the most obvious Cisticola in this arid country. I would suggest that it is maybe a Winding Cisticola, a species I thought is more bounded to water. I am hopeless with the Cisticolas, sorry

    Sandpiper 100km South of Khartoum 20.04.2017

    maybe next pics will solve the problem I am convinced to say Little SP. I just thought the legs would be too long for LSP

    Sandpiper 100km South of Khartoum 20.04.2017

    Id, please. This split eyebrow, not very short, greenish legs and a relatively short beak made me think of either Broad-billed SP, Curlew SP or Little SP. What do you think? I can`t make up my mind.

    Yellow Wagtail Bulgaria, in Sept.

    I think it is a Western Yellow Wagtail because there is a small darkish line in front of the ey but I also found that feature in pics identified as Citrine Wagtail.
