Title: unsure raptor and crows at MPNR
Post by Neil on Dec 13^th, 2005, 7:00pm

Taken at 16/17 on Monday. I'm not sure of the raptor , although it looks like an eagle and are the crows Large-Billed? Neil.

The raptor is a juvenile Black Kite, likely of lineatus race.

And the crows are indeed Large-billed.
