Hi Laurie / Mike,Looks like a Cinerous to me...
Re: the hunting. That’s nice to know Mike:t:
As for Malta. I would love to visit for the history as much as bird migration but there is no chance. The dreaded EU have not punished the Government for hunting transgressions and have given them ‘special’ arrangements to carry on hunting some species:C. I won’t bang on about it as Chris Packham has already done a high-profile job. A couple of years ago i had an ongoing spat with a certain Mifsud on Birdforum (it’s a Maltese name) the President of the shooting lobby - a smarmy nasty piece of work if ever there was. Suffice to say the hunters are related to the Police who are related to the judiciary who are related to the politicians.....
