Looks like some kind of Prinia to me, may be even this is incorrect....

Please note the color of its head and the long tail.   Logged Anguslau BBS Member BBS God I love bird watching!     Posts: 402 Re: Prinia ??? « Reply #2 on: Feb 7th, 2004, 6:44pm » Quote Modify Thanks for the id!   Somehow, I cannot see the picture myself here Logged isaac_chan BBS Member BBS God Praise the Creator for His amazing works!     Gender: Posts: 754 Re: Prinia ??? « Reply #3 on: Feb 7th, 2004, 6:58pm » Quote Modify It is because you post the web link instead of the image link.   This is the web link. http://www.pbase.com/image/25805659.JPG   This is the image link: http://image.pbase.com/u39/anguslau/upload/25805659.040206_5402.jpg   You may change the link within IMG tag into the image link and see the difference.   Logged For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

I am puzzled   How do you get this URL? Do you go to the image, then right-click properties, then strip out the host name within the displayed URL? This sees complicated...   Logged isaac_chan BBS Member BBS God Praise the Creator for His amazing works!     Gender: Posts: 754 Re: Prinia ??? « Reply #5 on: Feb 7th, 2004, 10:18pm » Quote Modify Hi Angus,   It also failed to display the image on my browser now. Maybe PBASE has some mechanism to prevent images showing, if you are not browsing PBASE. I think IE is using the cached file to display the image.   So I prefer to use 鳥類攝影中心. You may also find some members in this BBS there. http://kite.center.kl.edu.tw/vbb/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=7. « Last Edit: Feb 7th, 2004, 10:20pm by isaac_chan » Logged For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--his eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Mike Turnbull Guest Re: Prinia ??? « Reply #6 on: Feb 7th, 2004, 10:51pm » Quote Modify Remove An amazingly attractive and characterful picture of a species which, though common and widespread, is surely not easy to photograph.   As Editor of the Bird Report, could I ask you if you might be prepared to submit this photo and any others of comparable quality for publication in the Report or the Bulletin?     Indeed all photos submitted to the Society for possible publication in any form are very gratefully received.   Mike Turnbull Logged Anguslau BBS Member BBS God I love bird watching!     Posts: 402 Re: Prinia ??? « Reply #7 on: Feb 8th, 2004, 4:35pm » Quote Modify Mike,   It would be my honour if you find it useful.   Surely I can sumbit this and several others which I like myself. (haven't got too many good ones though  ). Please let me know how I can submit and what size (resolution) of file you would like.   Regards,   Angus Lau Logged Anguslau BBS Member BBS God I love bird watching!     Posts: 402 Re: Prinia ??? « Reply #8 on: Feb 8th, 2004, 4:42pm » Quote Modify Isaac,   I know the reason now. My original method was largely correct. The only problem was that in stead of typing .jpg, I typed .JPG which got translated to a web link in place of the file link. The longer link that you suggested was a temporary link which will disappear after a while.   So for other pbase users who might be interested in this as well. The correct file link should be something like: http://www.pbase.com/image/25805659.jpg   You can get this link via: 1) display the image on pbase, note the url of the page 2) add .jpg at the end; make sure that your caps lock is not on!!     Thanks for the effort Isaac. I hope we all learn something.   Logged Pages: 1  Reply Send Topic Print Forum Jump: ----------------------------- Announcement 簡訊通告 -----------------------------  - Membership Affair 會員事務   - Outings / Activities 戶外活動 / 講座   - Projects 項目計劃   - Crested Bulbul Club 紅耳鵯俱樂部 ----------------------------- Discussion Area 討論區 -----------------------------  - General 一般問題   - Conservation 自然保育   - Bird Identification 鳥類辨識   - Birding Reports & Tips 觀鳥報告及心得 => Photo Gallery 相片分享 I   - Photo Gallery 相片分享 II ----------------------------- Special Topics 特別主題 -----------------------------  - Wild Birds & Avian Flu 野鳥與禽流感   - Sustainable Management Scheme in Long Valley 塱原可持續生態管理計劃   - Black-faced Spoonbill 黑臉琵鷺   - Goodbye Penfold 告別彭福   - Tern Conservation 燕鷗保育   - Black-eared Kite 鳶(麻鷹)   - Swifts and Swallows 燕與雨燕   - China Birdwatching Network 中國觀鳥活動網絡   - Winter Altas Survey 冬季鳥類普查   - Nature Conservation Policy 自然保育政策 ----------------------------- Knowledge Sharing 知識分享 -----------------------------  - FAQ 常見問題   - Archive 資料重溫 « Previous topic | Next topic »
