I think the second bird is a Chestnut Quail-Thrush (male), although I am happy to be corrected.

Thanks WD, Reflex. Should have tagged them.
First is Richards Pipit.
Second, as Reflex suggests but happy to be corrected.
Third, Brown Songlark.
Cheers

WT Eagle must be a magnificent sight - nice work Rick. That take-off is a beauty.

That Pipit is outstanding Rick! Not to mention the Wedgie & Hobby. Gee I am envious of your variety, it's simply wonderful - look forward to what you find and photograph each and every time!

Hey, did you know that there are two posts of the same thread for these? Not that it matter, just thought I'd point it out in case you see the other and wonder where all the replies have gone

Great captures of the hobby Rick - hope you get tired of diving and get more photos for us!

Do you do underwater photography as well ... if so, I'm sure you could sneak a few in here for us.

Great photos Rick. I love that last Wedgie shot and that Hobby is great. Do you have a waterproof camera housing or a waterproof camera to take photos underwater?
