Hello everybody!
My first post here, trying BirdForum because I am often in need of a verification or just some ID idea's.
I often use iNaturalist's AI to help me on my way to an identification, but that is of course not flawless.
And I hesitate to post birds on iNaturalist as I use eBird as well.
Since both share there observations to the GBIF database it would mean a double entry if I post both on iNaturalist and eBird.
Anyway.
An observation from the garden in Jutland today: Three birds flying low, unorganized and actually with lots of rapid changes of their flight path as they seemed to "play" with each other. Their flight pattern reminded me of swallows - almost that fast.
As they flew past I thought that they were very yellow as seen from below, but there was an early morning sun so maybe that explains the colour.
I checked the AI from iNaturalist (without posting) with the best picture (1) and it proposed Tree Pipit. That seems reasonable.
But why not Meadow Pipit? Beats me!
Any idea's?
