    Royal Terns? Port Antonio, Jamaica

    And yet another colo(u)r ringed/banded bird (2nd from the left in 7560)... This time you can read the code: '1YU'. Worth to report it I guess.

    Terns and gulls near Cartagena, Colombia

    Without the code it is not worth to dig deeper. But still you might find this info interesting: Royal Terns — Virginia Tech Shorebird Program

    Terns and gulls near Cartagena, Colombia

    It's the center bird in 4238, if you check the legs you'll notice the white 'ring' - it's actually more the shape of a tube...

    No, the ringed bird is not on it...

    Terns and gulls near Cartagena, Colombia

    The Royal Tern with the open bill has a white colour-ring. Do you have other pics where the code could be read? Might be interesting...

    Sand Plovers from Oman, 02/2024

    What about all Tibetan except the bird in 8C9A2406.jpg which shows a comparatively massive bill that looks like a Greater to me

    Feather ID

    Welcome to Birdforum! These are down feathers, much more difficult to get an idea of the ID compared to larger feathers of the wing or the tail. They seem to be very fluffy so might be of an owl. Habitat could help to narrow it down, but still... If you like, try to browse this website, but...

    Wader Singapore Feb 2024

    Agree they all are Calidris the last one captured in a different angle than the others, showing more white from the rump sides. I would have expected Sanderlings to show a more contrasty wing with a broader wingbar. What about Red-necked Stints?

    Kathmandu Leaf Warbler

    I agree with Lemon-rumped Warbler, the long eyestipe is really contrastingly dark and ends with a downward hook...

    Malaga, S Spain. Tern

    I'd say the bill is too long for CT but I agree the colour shouldn't be trusted. The red/orange seems to be an artefact... Why isn't it a Sandwich Tern? Did you see the bill colour in the field?

    Unknown seabirds' video from Morocco

    All appear to be larger Gulls. Most certainly are Lesser Black-backed Gulls of various ages

    another gull - mixed one ?

    Not because I doubt your ID of the OP gull, Lou, but because I think it might be of general interest: I know the person who was documenting a hybrid Herring -x- Lesser Black-backed juvenile of a brood on a roof in Rostock. The two photos are shared with permission... It shows the only juvenile...

    another gull - mixed one ?

    I didn't consider it to be a fuscus but rather an intermedius. They are moving East after all... Since you came back to this gull, Lou, I gave it a second look as well. I still find the inner primaries very dark esp. what can be glimpsed of the inner vanes... I always thought that hybrids would...

    I knew I should stay away from gulls X|... Thanx Lou!
