I haven't replied as yet 'cos I'm stumped - and Johns away!!
Pictures 1 & 2 - not sure. In pic 3 the bird at the top has a tail like a Great Grey Shrike, but it's a bit late for them now, although not impossible.
Pics 4 - 6 is a Yellowhammer (I think).
Will these attempts at ID'ing your birds count as payment for my trips south of the Ribble
Good luck,
Alan
