    Apologies for the quality of the image. Possible Cuckooshrike photographed in the SW of the country in August 17. Early morning and damp. I was leaning towards Large Cuckooshrike but lack of barring worries me. Any thoughts welcome.

    Photographed this bird on August 13th at the Peradeniya Botanical Gardens in Kandy, Sri Lanka.

    Raptor query

    Shot these two images on a recent trip to Gambia. Taken inland near Brikamaba.Close to Georgetown. Assumed at first it was a Yellow-billed/Black Kite, but something does not quite seem right compared to other Kite pictures I took on the trip. Any suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks Steve C

    Oostvaardenplassen Visit, Netherlands.

    Many Thanks for the replies. I will give the area a go although I appreciate it may not be the easiest to get around. I will be arriving by ship so I will keep a good eye open on the way in. A bike will be fine but very much weather dependant. I also read some of the other post in the forum on...
