unidentified birds

Игорь Фефелов: Не клоктун. В сравнении с крякашом крупновата птичка для клоктуна, и у клоктунов обоего пола есть чирочий темный передний край крыла снизу. [....]
2026-04-07

Игорь Фефелов: Краснозобый скорее всего
2026-03-12

Сергей Л. Волков: Ракурс неудачный. Но точно не обыкновенный бекас.
2026-02-26
