Med Gull

That's the one!

This next one is a montage of 6 Birds, all different, and i'll give you a clue for one of them:

it is the one with the least features showing on the Bird itself, only it's legs are showing (it's the Bird of the main picture inc. the background) and if there are any lancs Birders about they might recognize the contrast between the setting with "those Red legs".

This might take some time.

so far I've got a juv Common Tern for the body, Black-headed Gull's head, Herring Gull's eye and bags of confusion for the rest!

herring gull,med gull,common gull ,rosss gull gull,knot,green woodpecker

 

[ausmar]

I think that instead of greenwoodpecker - greenfinch. The eye seems to be herring gull, the rest i don't know...

Some good attempts there. But so far here's what's right:

1. Ross's gull (main pic)
2. Black headed gull (Beak)
3. Herring gull (eye)
4. Juv Common tern (Body)
5. Greenfinch (chest)
6. and one more??????

May be searching too far into it, but a possible Franklin's Gull (1st w) for the tail or Turnstone for legs???

It's the tail we're looking for, but it's not a Franklin's gull.

 

[razorsharp]

Collared dove maybe?

 

[NickPatel92]

Collared dove maybe?

Smaller than a Collared dove - think, what has a blue tail?

 

[razorsharp]

mmmmhh........a blue tit

 

[NickPatel92]

It's not a Blue tit, but it's name does begin with B, well it's "proper" name does.

 

[nickderry]

red-flanked bluetail???

 

[NickPatel92]

red-flanked bluetail???

The Bird's a Very common Bird in Lancashire - unlike a RF Bluetail!

 

[nickderry]

blue tail??? hmm, what's common with a blue tail and begins with a 'b'

boreal nuthatch? does that exist??

Nooooo.

Think of a Common Bird, with a Blue tail, not necessarily a normal sort of Passerine (not finch / bunting like).

 

[neil78]

How about Black-billed Magpie..?

 

[nickderry]

kingfisher????

 

[NickPatel92]

It's neither of those two. I'm running out of clues.

Clue: Like i said some people call it something beginning with a "B", and some people call it something beginning with an "S", however the "B" name includes the "S" name after it.

Get that
