First TZ Eur. Wryneck - photos



Find attached two images of the Eurasian Wryneck I found at the SW corner of
Small Mommella Lake, Arusha NP, on 11th Jan.

Sadly they are a little unsharp as the bird was moving quickly through the
trees after taking off from the ground and the autofocus had difficulties
finding the bird against the foliage. Nevertheless, I hope that you can see
that it is clearly Eurasian rather than Red-throated on account of the pale
throat, which shows some faint barring, and the dark streak through the eye.

Hopefully the bird will stick around for other observers to enjoy.

All the best,
Adam
