Thanks.

Red backed Shrike (PS Ody, need your score for ninth part of bird points game before I post the final round)

 

[ody]

It is a Red-backed Shrike!
Try this one without the head!

 

[nickderry]

probably way off, but first impressions count, so Calandra Lark?

 

[Jacana]

calandra lark is the only greek possibility

 

[NickPatel92]

I'm sure i can see black on the neck - Calandra lark for me.

 

[ody]

You are all very good!
It is a Calandra Lark.
You don't need so many info points to id a bird.
So the next are only the tip of the wings.

Cattle Egret?

Lovely shot of the Calandra Lark ody!

 

[Jacana]

squacco?

 

[NickPatel92]

Cattle egret for me.

 

[nickderry]

to be different, I'll try G W Egret, seems large to me, though Squacco or Cattle is much more sensible seeing as there is some buff visible.

 

[ody]

Cattle Egret?

Lovely shot of the Calandra Lark ody!

Thank you very much , desgreene!
Here is another shot.

 

[ody]

It was Squacco Heron.
The next pic has a strange anatomy... a leg on the head!

 

[Jacana]

hummm.... rock nuthatch?

 

[joe cockram]

How about another Red-backed Shrike, Ody?

 

[birderbf]

How about another Red-backed Shrike, Ody?

That's what I was thinking!

male red-backed shrike eating an insect of some kind (to be precise)

 

[NickPatel92]
