I have been interested in birds since I was six, since then I've birded on and off around the world but only seriously since 1997 when I could afford to travel farther than my back yard. Several trips to Central and South American, North, East, South and West Africa, South Central and Southeast Asia and Europe. I am currently a guide for Birdtour Asia. |

I've birded on an off since I was six. I've visited over 40 countries, not all for birding sadly and lived in the middle east, North Africa, Great Britain, Trinidad and the United States. I'm an avid sound recorder and have posted thousands of recordings on Xeno-canto (http://www.xeno-canto.org/recordist.php?id=PWDLINYMKL) and my photos are on my Flicker page (http://www.flickr.com/photos/madbirder). I now guide for Birdtour Asia. |

Hoopoe Lark, Malta, Comino 11 April
facebook
This is one of the two hoopoe larks which were in Malta recently. Another birder dismissed the statement that there were two simply because he saw only one. Compare these two photos and judge for yourselves whether these are two different birds or the same. One has a lot of streaking on the chest and the other has none. Even the wing pattern is the same.

Greater Hoopoe Lark, Malta, Comino Island 11th April 2014
Birding in Malta
After all there was only one Hoopoe Lark in Malta, on the beautiful Island of Comino, first seen on the 8th of April and remained there till at least the 13th, when it was last seen. Claiming that there were two birds is very irresponsible indeed. The only bird looked somewhat different at times because of the lighting conditions, angle and the time of the day when the pictures were taken.
