Pilgrimsfalk Falco peregrinus Fastest bird ! :thumbsup:
Better hide than run is a good advice to any mouse !
A more friendly bird (at least if You are a mouse)
Morning, time to react :D
LOL, thought I'd actually replied, must have become side tracked. ;)
Think it's a female Lesser Scaup, Aythya affinis. :)
Close shot Rolf but not that close
OK, how about a Scaup, Aythya marila. Unless of course it's a young Tufty with no tuft showing, Aythya fuligula.
That´s more like it :thumbsup:
Bergand Aythya marila
:D
<Here is Another Beauty for You
Lovely bird, water Rail, Rallus aquaticus. :)
Yes, a nice bird indeed
Vattenrall Rallus aquaticus :thumbsup:
This next bird was reported heard last week, from two places in the Stockholm area :D
Looks to me like a Skylark, will be off to France next weekend to see lots of them, Alauda arvensis.
Hope You can hear a few of them as well :D
Sånglärka Alauda arvensis :thumbsup:
Sorry about the camera
Perhaps better just look at the birds ??
Like this one.....
Eurasian Treecreeper (Certhia familiaris)
Sorry ArthuR, missed Your post :eek:
Trädkrypare Certhia familiaris is what it was, well done and welcome to the game. :thumbsup:
Let us start the Autum session with an easy one :thumbsup:
Marsh Tit? (Oh, I know it will be the other one now.........:conf40:)
So do I :D
OK then... Willow Tit?
Please say it is - to boost my confidence in ID'ing again!:D
Sorry, no boosting
Think it must be a specialist group of Willow Tits from your area Cris, perhaps Parus Salicarius?
Couldn't see any dark 'beard' on it, but looked like one of the two I mentioned otherwise. Does the sub-species(?) you mentioned have that patch. Rolf?
I think so Catherine, but some are lighter than others and the cold climate ones may have less of a bib.
Actually it is a mountain bird :D
Talltita Parus montanus :thumbsup:
Very common I must say, at least here in the North
Here is a week-ender :D
Going to try Hobby - Falco subbuteo
- (That is a bird of prey which plays table football I think!:-HaHaHa)
Well, if so - it is offside ;)
OK. So I'm not often right, and I'm wrong again.....!:014:
