First found by Tony Blunden (involved in the Brown that was on the Scillies). Managed to get down with Thor Veen who took these photos. Sorry about the quality - the bird was distant and the photos have been heavily cropped. Click on photos for a larger versionWould be interested in any thoughts on its ID. Looks quite good for Brown to me, but I do have reservations - e.g the squareness of the tail and the paleness of the lores - (although tail appears rounded on the left hand side). Will comment more and post fieldnotes in due course. Any comments welcome though.
Looks spot-on to me. If it's not one, I'd like to know why. And what's wrong with the lores anyway? Have a look at e.g. http://orientalbirdimages.org/search.php?p=5&action=searchresult&Bird_ID=2402&Bird_Family_ID=&pagesize=1
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with the lores as I've subsequently found out. Agree it looks spot on. See post above!
