Whooo hooo!
By the way, good idea posting all the originals ... it's interesting to see the context for all of the thumbnails.
Cheers,
Peter C.
It wasn't my idea, Larry gave me the suggestion!:bounce:

Well done Peter! Alas I was fast asleep when you won, but I'm kind of glad to have snuck in one last correct guess at the end there... not quite enough though.:t:Whooo hooo!

...just zis guy, you know?
Thanks, Chowchilla. I thought it was great how many of our birds you could recognize, considering that you have to look at them upside-down from there ... must add whole new dimension to the challenge ... :-O
Speaking of challenges, I think it would only be fair if you now put up a series of Aussie birds for us to have a go at ... fair play and all that.
Hope to "see" you again soon.

Well I've got enough bad pics for that, but I'm generally too bombed out after work, and I only come on here for about 10-15 mins. Plus I don't really have the technical nous to crop pics etc, but you never know; If I get my act together I might come up with something!

...just zis guy, you know?
Oh, I can certainly sympathize ... one of the last things I want to do, after a spending a day in front of a computer screen, is go home and spend an evening in front of a computer screen.
Still, would be interesting to see, some day - love Aussie birds, they make such an interesting contrast to what we have here (which are wonderful too, of course...)
So long,
Peter C.
