Where can I locate an easy bird quiz on the web? I had earlier logged onto good one showing birds found in Sheffield birder's garden. Sadly, I now can't remember how I got there! Can anyone help??

Sorry....forgot to mention it was multiple choice...and you could choose whether to use sounds, photos or both. I had just got my sad score up from 5/10 to 8/10 so am keen to carry on until 100%( or thereabouts).

I do feel a bit of an idiot now (answering my own question).
Has anyone come across something else suitable for beginners?????

I tried the quiz you mentioned, Keith. I think the quizzes will help this "yank" to become familiar with some of the birds across the pond. I have "bookmarked" this quiz on our computer. I also "bookmarked" the one suggested by naturistbird.

Bah humbug
the ex beeb sub forum have had quizzes in the past- you could always go and browse some of them (not all necessarily easy tho . . 
)
If you want to test yourself (eg to improve your birding skills), you can always go to the bird identification q and a forum here on BF as well. As you start scrolling down through all the threads, you can look at the first post of each and look at the photo (usually) posted which someone wants help with. Half the time it may be some mega rare or difficult or foreign species, but often it will be something closer to home you can have a stab at before seeing what everyone else thinks and hopefully learn a lot from the whole experience. . You could choose from the title threads those you think most relevant to yourself and your id skill level, or choose a particular bird family and go for all those to get more familiar with them.
Hours of endless fun . . .
