The Zoochat Photographic Guide To The Muscicapoidea (Part II) - Thrushes, Starlings and Allies

I agree, some posts may end up being split when new photos get added, but I don't think that should make too big a difference.
My main reservation about joining the two threads is that the current titles of each thread make it clear what is depicted within, whereas the joint thread would have to omit these (as the maximum title length won't permit the addition of the words "Old World Flycatchers and Chats" to this thread, nor "Thrushes, Starlings and Allies" to the other thread) and stick to merely "The Zoochat Photographic Guide To The Muscicapoidea".
Thoughts?
It will still be clear what is depicted within, just not specifically
~Thylo
Only if people already knew what the Muscicapoidea comprised

"The ZooChat Photographic Guide to OW Flycatchers, Chats, Starlings, Thrushes, and Allies"
Just a suggestion if you really don't trust people to be interested by the odd sounding name
I'd imagine most interested parties are subscribed to the threads already.~Thylo
Indeed, although we seem to have a bug at the moment where threads which have been split/merged into others cease to notify anyone subscribed to them
I'll check if your suggested title fits with the maximum title length, in any case.
You wouldn't really need Chats in the title.
"The ZooChat Photographic Guide to OW Flycatchers, Thrushes, Starlings, and Allies" would do, I think.
Judging by ZTL it's been around for at least two years but is not signposted anywhere, so I imagine it's either offshow, no longer present or unsigned. You're basically our best bet for finding out one way or another
So far, I found out that they do are/were in the zoo since 2015 when 3,0 arrived. In 2016 1,0 departed and 2,0 were there at least until the end of 2017. Will look for more info
I have uploaded a picture of the alpine subspecies of ring ouzel (Turdus torquatus alpestris) to the German wildlife gallery.
