RE: Bird Quiz

Well done Jamie, i didn't really have a clue, i was thinking it may have been some form of Bunting, possibly Lapland.

It is a Dupont's Lark! How the hell did you get that? It must have been a guess or some very clever detective work!

Will put another on tomorrow.Well done Jamie!

RE: Bird Quiz

I instantly thought it was a Lark, and I knew where the Lark section of my bird book is.

I turned to that area of the book, and the Dunpot's Lark was on the first page I looked at. It looked like the photo, so I just picked it! Icon_smile
