Geoffrey,
Well if you're going to do that, I request give
some more time before giving an answer. I didn't see this one come in at all and
a search on e-mail doesn't show I got it. When did you send it? I believe all
your answers and would have got 9 at first try or 10 or 11 if I really tried.
Probably a point in or between 9.5 & 10.5. I would have got no. 6 & 11.
Also 3, 4 & 13 only confident to genus level. I can't see any heron or egret
in 5 and the second photo isn't convincing, sure, the other bird is a heron. I
wasn't there but I think it is a harrier. Or that is what it looks like. Herons
have curved or bowed wings, whereas raptors (mostly) have straight wings, like
this picture.
