Hi all,
Any help on these three would be greatly appreciated - I do apologise for the quality as they are all phone pictures.
1 (pics 1 and 2) - Scaup or Tufted Duck? Common sense would say Tufted but quite extensive white around the bill base and flat head has me 50-50 on this one.
2 (pic 3) - Emperor Geese or Snow Geese? Two feral birds hanging with the Greylags - I assume Emperor Geese as oppose to blue morph Snow Geese?
3 (pic 4) - Razorbill or Guillemot? Dead on the shore - I assume a juv Razorbill based on the beak.
Many thanks in advance.
