    Brittany earlier in the week, presume a “flatfish” bottom feeder?

    My first impression is the common cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis).

    Name a Bird You've Photographed

    I'm confused. I posted the Pied Cormorant and I see it as 486. Pied Cormorant, Aus. Above that is 485. Madeiran Chaffinch Madeira, Portugal, posted by Paul. The only relationship is consecutive numbers. Is there supposed to be a relationship between adjacent images, or something?

    I tend to support the theory that the ability to out compete is/was a prime factor, but.in all honesty, does it really matter, in the current situation, which caused the decline?

    Yes. They were persecuted but I have never heard of this claim of their needing to be reintroduced. Please supply references.
