Guess the bird

There are a couple of others which frequent Northern climes, not sure how good the photograph is and whether the light colouring is over exposure, the Tawny Pipit is also a possibility, has almost no patterning at all on the underside. Anthus campestris

I looked at the Tawny but it didn't look the same but then some times nor do two photos of the same bird

Fältpiplärka Tawny Pipit Anthus campestris :thumbsup:

Well done. They do look alike many of those Pipit :D

Here is something else :)

and it is on it´s way, nice timing here.

It's a Wheatear, Oenanthe oenanthe.:)

Yes it is :thumbsup:

and this ? what could it be :)

Little Grebe - Tachybaptus ruficollis ?

Much too long a beak for a little Grebe, looks like a Red Breasted Merganser juvenile. Mergus serrator I think.:)

Red Breasted Merganser was my first thought but didn't look like an photos i could find but if it's a Juvenile well yes you are probably right Rolf :thumbsup:

Here is a well known bird (I think)

Crossbill- Loxia scotica

Yes, it is one of those:)

I don't know which one because they look very similar

In that case :)



Mindre korsnäbb Common Crossbill Loxia curvirostra :thumbsup:
