[China] Xinjiang - 新疆/2013

Some wonderful shots Andy!

The Starlings are terrific and the male Lesser Kestrel is magnificent.


The mammal at the end of the series is a Marbled Polecat

A couple of suggested amendments:

I think you put the wrong photo under the caption for Crested Lark - it's a Mongolian Finch (as you correctly identify lower down).

Your shrike looks like Lesser Grey to me and the sandgrouse is, I think, Pallas's.

There are no Pale-footed Bush Warblers in Xinjiang. I believe your photo shows a Tawny Pipit.
