| Comments : | Around 13:30 we had a putative Pied Crow Corvus albus, about two minutes walk from signal tower on the Old Head of Kinsale. Drawn initially. to a strange crow call, spotted a bird bigger than a Chough but not as big as a Raven, heavy Raven like bill that seemed to be curved down when calling, black plumage except for white chest and shoulder black above and below wings and tail. Tail wasn't wedge shaped more rounded. Bird soared around above me for about two minutes before heading out toward old head. Chough and buzzard in the air for comparison. |
