With the end of the spring I thought it might be fun to pick the top three birds of the past season. So here I am posting 25 birds in alphabetical order. Why not have some fun with me and select your top three? Just put your favourites numbered 1, 2 and 3 in the comments section and we can see which species win. It wasn't easy picking the 25! Here they go:
Bee-eater
Black-winged Stilt
Bluethroat
Bullfinch
Collared Pratincole
Greater Flamingo
Griffon Vulture
Honey Buzzard
Lesser Kestrel
Night Heron
Northern Wheatear
Ortolan Bunting
Puffin
Purple Heron
Redstart
Rock Thrush
Roller
Sardinian Warbler
Short-toed Eagle
Spoonbill
Spotless Starling
Squacco Heron
Subalpine Warbler
White Stork
Woodchat Shrike
You don't make it easy :) But if I have to choose the I suppose my choices would be 1. Redstart. 2. Puffin 3. Night Heron. But realistically, any of them could be in my three.
ReplyDeletevery nice, Great work
ReplyDeleteOK Clivie, I'm not sure how you fit in the day job with all these birding jaunts (!) but the results are very good. I like the Bee-eaters (1), Sard Warbler (2) and Rollers (3).

ReplyDeletegracias Francisco!
ReplyDeleteMi voto 1 va para la pareja de Merops. Es magnífica. Tiene nitidez, simetría y un equilibrio perfecto entre tonos cálidos y fríos.
ReplyDeleteMi voto 2 es para Himantopus.
Mi voto 3, ex aequo, para Sylvia y para Platalea.
