Description

Dead juvenile woodpecker. Reportedly recent. I'm unsure what's at the tip of upper mandible, is it possibly crushed in a collision and brought here by corvid?

Description

Spotted a northern pike thrashing at the surface with a fish in its mouth. The pike eventually gave up and swam away. On inspection, we found a round whitefish that looked to have been dead for some time - appears to have been a scavenging attempt by the pike, rather than predation. Round whitefish ~25cm total length.

Id for carcass. Gulls brought something near the glass, but they couldn't possibly mutilate bird found there this fast, so this must be some piece of bigger animal or older leftover instead? It was soon swallowed as whole anyway. So: recent glass collision victim or something else?

Description

Gull came around meauwing, next time I looked behind my back it was taking from elm seeds I think juvenile house sparrow and digesting it. It was already early evening and none of house sparrows were at open ground, neither they were alarming the event. So even though place would suspect it predated unaware young sparrow feeding on elm seeds, but I guess more likely there has been earlier car collision instead.

EDIT: I'm inclined to think gull somehow predated sparrow from its flying path.

The mulch was put down yesterday and I didn't see it this morning, so I assume it fell from its nest sometime between 9am and 6pm.

Near the pine tree that seems to be dominated by house sparrows, but I haven't spent much time looking for nests.

This one has been clearly killed by crushing its head. Labour Day celebration? If in any way related, there was Finns Party event here yesterday.

Right foot appears to be broken. Have to check if this is the same one with broken foot that has regularly been around.

EDIT: Looks like this was the same foot injured one that has been here years, and also seen this spring, but not afterwards.

Scavenged by but unlikely brought here by crow. Maybe goshawk prey instead? There was unlikely fieldfare flyby and call last night two hours after dark.

By closer look, this was surprisingly small: headless body length roughly 10 cm, longest wing feather 15 cm.

Comments

I've changed all the interaction field names from "Interaction: " to "Interaction->" to stop them messing with the photo tag processing on photo import. When adding photos already tagged with fields to the "Add an observation" page, it was only grabbing the field name text after the colon and so not working properly.

Everything works now that the colon is gone, so long as you use a recognised taxon name. For example, if I tag a photo on my computer with "Interaction->Visited flower of=Rosmarinus officinalis" and upload it, it will get this field added with the taxon Rosmarinus officinalis.

That can save a lot of time if you''re maintaining your own photo library in your computer and tagging lots of photos there and uploading them all at once.
