    Lesser sand plover? Pulicat lake, TN, india.

    Hello, I saw these plovers at Pulicat Lake, Tamil Nadu, India. I'm not sure of the ID, though i feel they might be lesser sand plovers. They were far away and I attach a couple of digiscoped images. Also, it appears that the nomenclature has changed to Tibetian/Siberian/Mongolian sand...

    Gull ID please - Musselburgh, Scotland

    It looked too bulky to be a lesser black backed gull to me. It was more herring gull size (comparing to the ones at the back). But guess the colour is darker. So I am beginning to think LBB now. Have never seen an LBB with a ring on the bill and the white at the tip. Learning as I go...

    Gull ID please - Musselburgh, Scotland

    It was amongst a large group of common gulls maplekong. I thought there were one or two herring gulls, but they were resting and I could not get a proper view of them.

    Gull ID please - Musselburgh, Scotland

    Hello, Based on the size, I wondered if this was a slightly darker herring gull, but the legs were yellow. It looked too big to be a lesser black backed gull. It has a dark ring on the bill and a white tip. The red patch can also be seen on the lower bill, so its on its way to becoming an adult...

    mp3 no.4 please

    Are you referring to the first of the two wav files in the email at 6.38 PM? If so, I have not heard that call either. So useful to know. The calls in your recordings sound slightly different to the ones we have further North. Guess its regional variation.

    mp3 no.4 please

    You might want to give the Merlin app a try. You can record and ID at the same time. Its free and works well in the UK. Merlin Bird ID - Home
