0/* 0/* Hello

Is there a policy that you can make an unlikely identification just to score more points lol

If so, I'd like to make my cuckoo a common cuckoo, my vulture a Cape vulture and my hare a cape hare (gents have done so :O^ )

Just asking lol

It's impossible to tell apart the hares and the cuckoos imo :shock:

I agree about the hares, but which cuckoo is suspect?

I have a cuckoo, which I think is a euro-cuckoo, just because it was silent, but the photo is too poor to see the beak properly, but I think it has a black tip to the beak.

There is almost no difference between European and African Cuckoo if you cannot see the under-tail and the base of the bill :-?
