For birds this week I decided to start with some game birds from Europe.
 |
| Switzerland - Alectoris graeca - Rock Partridge |
The Ring-necked Pheasant occurs in many countries, including -
 |
| Yugoslavia - Phasianus colchicus |
I just wonder whether a bird of prey used for sport would take one of those.
 |
| UAE - Falcon (issued 07/04/2013) |
Finally two birds from South Africa.
 |
| South Africa - Bokmakierie and Bateleur |
The Bokmakierie (Maiaconotus zeylonus) is a large yellow bushshrike. As you may be able to tell from its beak the Bateleur (Tetrathorpius ecaudatus) is an eagle.
