Six people had a crack at the quiz. Mark Clayton came out on top with 15 correct answers.

No-one got the Wonga Pigeon.

There were a few tough birds in there. The immature woodswallow was a hard one. They have a yellow eye for a brief period as they go from their first to second plumage. In the full photo you can see the bird looks like an adult but the feathers still have a few spots.

And yes, I was tricky (nasty?) and put the budgie in twice.

Thanks for playing

Anthony
