Sillyettes #3

Maybe it's time for another round of mystery Sillyettes?

Perhaps to help pass the time and keep the brain cells ticking over with something different for a bit.

Maybe easy, maybe not, but as always, it's just for fun.

Feel free to have a bash at ID'ing them, if you feel the urge.

Maybe the enviroments will help with a few, but then again, maybe not.!!

All adults, with no juveniles. :-)

All photos taken in Scotland.

  • Well done Paul

    I had no problem coming up with ideas but I maybe hopelessly wrong. I'm not sure I can hide them and by now these will be far enough down the page that people don't have to look! So these are my first thoughts

    • Lapwing
    • Skylark
    • Emu
    • Swan (Whooper?) and Great Crested Grebe
    • Purple Sandpiper
    • Whitethroat
    • Eider
    • Starling
    • Woodpigeon
    • Goosander
    • Shag
    • Ladybirds?
