Bird, as in avian, recognition.

Anyway, Britain's only diurnal tubenose wasn't gonna cause us too many problems. Make it harder please

You're both wrong, this is a Fulmar.

Fairey nuff.

Darty Valiant

Deffo a Fulmar. Its bill is a giveaway. 

How about this one....

AddicksAddict

Well, it's got a white throat so I'm going to go out on a limb here, Nicholas, and say yellowhammer.

Nightingale?

Shit. The Lesser/Non-Lesser Whitethroat Conundrum. Big guns 

AddicksAddict

Unfortunately, the name came up when I moved my mouse over the picture so it wasn't difficult.

Leuth

Given the rufous colouration I'm gonna say it's a normal Whitethroat, plus it's singing openly, Lesser tend to be a bit more secretive 

Leuth

Let's turn the difficulty dial up a notch 

Big_Bad_World

Is it a fig tree?

Darty Valiant

Foliage makes this a bit tricky and size also therefore deceptive.... Redwing? Seems to have the distinctivewhite stripe above eye, mottled belly and  yellow beak..... May be wrong though.

Leuth

Congrats! Next one will be even tougher...

A redwing in July?

Here you go then, Leuth: 

Leuth

Oh god it's a scrub warbler of some type, possibly a rare visitor. Let's think...it had better not just be a Lesser Whitethroat lol

Take your pick...

Uboat

I’ll give you another angle and you’ll get it straight away. 

Leuth

It is a Curruca, though, yes?

Uboat

Leuth

Grasshopper warbler?

Uboat

Spotted flycatcher 

Leuth

Oh ffs of course

Leuth

You should have said to keep guessing though!

Darty Valiant

  

Uboat

Tough one. I don’t think it’s a twite, but that’s the best I’ve got. 

Leuth

That would be my instant guess as well, but maybe I need to consider a few of the buntings... 

MrOneLung

Are you guys just making names up here !! 

“I’m embarrassed to say i originally thought this was a Crested Starch Hopper but then I notice the middle toe was slightly elongated so it must be a  Lesser Rumped Warbler “ 

Leuth

You're playing with the big boys now Mr One Lung 

Darty Valiant

Wing Commander Leuth is nearest so far..
