Hello Folks,Here's something for all you fans of our feathered friends. Each friday for 12 weeks, I will be posting a little teaser for you. Without looking in books or on the internet (i.e - no cheating), see if you can identify this bird. The following Monday, so as long as no-one has guessed it, I will post one clue. The day after I will post the answer along with some additional information for your interest. Here goes ....MYSTERY BIRD #12You won't turn your back on my stellar plumage, so late in the evening.
Another wild shot,Star Spotted Nightjar

Birding is for everyone no matter how good or bad we are at it,enjoy it while you can
The definition of STELLAR is "Awesome, excellent"
well thought seaman.
I think you might be right Seaman, that sounds like a good one!
Better than my guesses LOL

I did that one Seaman if you look back. It was effectively ruled out by Mrs T because she said it wasn't an East African bird.

Me too, and you're probably as close as anyone else, Becca. My contribution is the Hypnotic Midnight Sunbird.

a good laugh is better than a tonic
LOL, we're all doing well on this one then!
I've close to given up, because I know I'm not going to get it, especially as MrsT had never heard of it.
And I'm definitely not thinking about it now, 6am is too early for things like this!
Clue please?! :-)
another way of looking at it.
Could it have something to do with a constellation like the Plough or great bear.
Is there a constellation named after a bird.
We only see them at night. ONLY A THOUGHT
Now wheres my pin and doll lol
