unidentified birds

2026-04-11

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

Игорь Фефелов: На мой взгляд, клюв крупноват для серой. Но она и вообще, надо сказать, весьма тощая...

2026-02-24

Сергей Л. Волков: Черный коршун и ворон.
