mrdee 1 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 Hello,I was wondering if there are people on here with a sound knowledge of birds.I have uploaded a picture of a bird,and i would like to know what kind of bird it is.Just to try and help a little bit, the picture was taken in Europe,in belgium to be more precise.It would be a great help if someone could answer my question.Thank you very much in advance.

anwiii 17 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 try making the picture a little larger so we can see the bird Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrdee 1 Report post Posted May 14, 2011 (edited) Yes, I noticed that myself, straight after uploding it. It looked a lot bigger on that black screen that pops up on Facebook (but it looks you cant copy the pictures from here, only from the page it is on). It did, however, lookvery clear nd crisp on Facebook. Also, the picture being a .jpg, I fear that, when increasing the size, it will go all blocky. So, any suggestions? Thank you. I'll have to try it this way he 2nd time, can't find the upload box anymore. (This is an enlarged version).

rvalkass 5 Report post Posted May 16, 2011 That's a blue *BLEEP* (cyanistes caeruleus) isn't it? Have you not seen them in Slough before mrdee? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anwiii 17 Report post Posted May 16, 2011 there's a joke in there, but i'm not sayin' it. i tried to research it myself, but i couldn't really find a good match. rvalkass could be correct though. it definately has similar variations to the hmmmm blue *BLEEP*. the larger picture is better, but still too fuzzy to make any accurate guess(for myself at least) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrdee 1 Report post Posted May 17, 2011 That was exactly what I was saying, anwiii, the original picture on facebook was nice and crisp and clear, but i cannot get it to look like that for some odd reason.It might be the kind of bird that is described, but i am still not 100% sure if it is correct.And, yes, rvalkass, I have seen them in Slough, especially during that time my central heating broke down. (I must say they did look different to the picture, though). :PThanks for your input, gentlemen, nevertheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrdee 1 Report post Posted May 17, 2011 I think I found it now. The bird has indeed somethig to do with *BLEEP*, but would not be a blue, but a great *BLEEP* (parus major). Maybe I could refer to a clearer picture: Oops, see in the preview I get a number of BLEEPs here, hope I don't get warnings for them, as I was writing some thing completely innocent. Rvalkass, how did you manage to write that without a BLEEP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
