purple heron is correct, black-throated diver isn't. A new round coming up soon!

 

[dantheman]

Coot with its head in a tumbler?

Coot with its head in a tumbler?

no, though that is almost identical

 

[nickderry]

Itching to get on with the next round - it was another young black-necked grebe diving.

black kite, hoopoe, don't know, young stilt, lapwing and marsh sandpiper?

greenshank, not marsh sand and three might be a finch -serin?

 

[nickderry]

the only correct one is lapwing - though another of your choices appears in a different picture.

 

[Apodemus]

Hazel grouse 2? Carrier bag 3?

 

[nickderry]

Hazel grouse 2? Carrier bag 3?

2 is correct.

 

[scary-canary]

4 greenshank?

 

[Jonny721]

1) Long Legged Buzzard?
3) Little Owl
4) Marsh Sandpiper?
5) Bar Tailed Godwit?

 

[nickderry]

4 greenshank?

Correct.

None for Jonny I'm afraid. So all that's needed now is The raptor in number one, the thing that looks like a piece of wood in number three and the wader with the lapwing in number 5 (that looks nothing like what it is in this photo!)

 

[dantheman]

I had the Greenshank My other guesses were;

1) Marsh Harrier
3) Woodpigeon
5) Wood Sand

 

[maltese falcon]

1-Lesser spotted eagle
3- Scops Owl
4- Lapwing & Black tailed godwit

 

[nickderry]

1 is indeed a Lesser Spotted Eagle and 5 is a Wood Sand. So what looks like a piece of wood then?

nightjar

 

[Jonny721]

I'll go for my other idea for this 1 which was Wryneck?

 

[nickderry]

still no correct answers for the last one.

 

[scary-canary]

still no correct answers for the last one.

woodcock, long eared owl, any sort of owl, it doesn't half look like a wryneck now you mention it, woodlark, skylark, any sort of lark, mistle thrush, am i getting warm?

 

[nickderry]

I'll give you a clue - from a distance I thought it was another hazelhen.
