I just finished the text on an identification paper on Oriental and Collared Pratincoles. This will soon be published in Dutch Birding. Whilst preparing the illustrations, we are also collecting good-quality photographs of the two species, perched and in flight, to be published with the article. Photographs of the Eurasian G.pratincola pratincola, the African G.p.erlangeri / fuelleborni and G.maldivarum are requested (both juvenile and adult). Please mention place and date where and when the bird was photograped. If possible, we would appreciate it if you could send us a preview of the photographs by e-mail first. This will allow us to make a first selection and will prevent any unnecessary sending of original material by post. All photographers will be acknowledged and a fee is payed for all published material. Thanks in advance,
