    Late IDs of my trip to Namibia in July.

    Late IDs of my trip to Namibia in July.

    I was referring to photo number 1. Lesser swamp warbler convinced me, but now SJC proposes Tawny-flanked Prinia but that is even more outranged than the lesser swamp warbler as per ebird. We are speaking of Mariental, south of Windhoek

    Yep, you are right. Numbers in the photos will help. About the editing it was only spelling that I fixed. I had written Naminia instead of Namibia.

    Late IDs of my trip to Namibia in July.

    Pipit ID in Namibia

    I always find pipit IDs difficult. More special in a continent I am not used to it. It is from Stampriet (central Namibia) so the options are african, buffy or long billed.

    Best birding location around Dallas in winter

    Thank you very much for your recommendations. I just came back from Dallas although the weather has been very wet. Lots of rain with Trinity river flooding last week. That limited the options like Lewisville, as the dam was opened discharging water. I chose Village creek drying beds for one...
