Sign In to followBut looking at the second picture the ups cannot be didyma so it must be trivia.
The first picture the hw uns could be either.
Thanks Daniele, I think the bit of forewing tip showing ups suggests M. didyma?
Sorry, not doing very well with these, I'll fix it.
Thanks for the correction on the ID Daniele.
Thanks for the ID Emilie, this is Spotted Sulphur in English.
Thanks. I removed the query marks but left the query in the description field.
Kalahari was not in the range in my old book but I see it has recently been reported there several times so it is possible. I have changed the headings to include the names. Thanks for the help.
Cercotrichas galactotes is highly unlikely in Kruger Park as it is a long way from its southern limit. Only one South African record exists, Cape Town in 2016. This bird appears to have a rufous back and grey cap so could be one of other family members which are found in the park. Pity I did not get a good focus on it.
This spotting requires updating, it has the wrong category (it is not a bird), the map location is incorrect (Mumbai is not in Nigeria)and the Common and scientific names need correcting, as per the suggestion. All this can be done by using your "edit this spotting" link above your avatar.
Thanks for your help Irina, O will look into this later. Certainly close but I don't see the hindwing pattern in mine.
