C. t. heinrichi

No photographs of this species are present in the Zoochat gallery.

....and THAT is the Turdidae completed the Cinclidae will follow anon.

 

Yeah that's just an editing error borne of the fact I listed it as having no photos when I posted that chunk, then edited the photos in later when I found them labelled as Olive Thrush; shall fix the issue now.

 

I keep getting that same feeling. There are heaps of species in the bird threads which I have seen, often a multitude of times, and I think "I must have a photo of that one somewhere" but then I don't.

 

They would certainly be more than welcome
