Guess the bird

Merlin - Falco columbarius

It is not a good clear picture :-hoho so it is rather hard to see what it is :-cthumb

Ok, I'll try for a Hobby - Falco subbuteo

Sorry Rolf :-cwink

Gyrfalcon - falco rusticolus ?

That picture was very dull but on purpose:-cthumb

I think You all are very good in finding out my birds.

Orange-breasted Falcon - Falco deiroleucus ?

No, it is not. I think this bird is very colorfull in that last picture but not always so. :-snowhead

Pintail ducks Anas acuta ?

Pink-footed Geese Anser brachyrhynchus.


Pete.

I thought they looked like geese then changed my mind ( wel I am a woman) :-santa1

Well Pete got the family right but still not the the name of those birds.

So, it´s Anser allright :-cthumb

All I need now is the rest :-snowball

How about Bean Goose - Anser fabalis

Well, after some hesitation :-elf I decided to give You credit for that statement Rolf :-sman

In fact it they are : Tundrasädgås Anser fabalis rossicus

but I must admitt that it was close :-cthumb

This next one will be easier I think :-snowball

Well that beautiful little chap has to be a Bluethroat. :) Luscinia svecica

Sure is Rolf :-cthumb Blåhake Luscinia svecica

Svecica sounds like sweden to me The name means Bluechin :-elf

Good looking bird !

Here is a strange looking bird :-cthumb

Not many birds with that beak, methinks perhaps an Avocet - Recurvirostra avosetta. :)

Dead right Rolf, that beak is not that common :-elf


Skärfläcka Recurvirostra avosetta , even the latin name speak about the beak :-hoho

Here is another beaky bird :-cthumb

Bar-tailed Godwit- Limosa lapponica

Black-tailed Godwit Limosa limosa.


Pete.

I thought the Black -tail had a straight beak ? This one looks to have a curved beak but I'm not to well so I'm probably wrong:-snowhead

Well, You are close both of You but no, this is a close relative. :-cthumb
