Ok folks, this should keep you busy for a while.

The first one has 4 birds in it, and you need to get all 4 correct. All 4 are Australian parrots. In a way, it's a tricky photo - don't get distracted by the different colours!

The pic taken at night will probably be the most difficult. It was taken in the wild in Australia.

I'm going to sit this round out because it is way too easy (also I think I know where and when you took the night-time shot, so its almost cheating for me!)
 
1. I do see an eclectus parrot in there.
2. Vervet Monkey
3. Serval
4. A type of opossum
5. Rockhopper Penguin (Do I need to specify which?)
6. Snowy Owl

I think you should get the title of "Grand Master" for sitting competitions out and just posting hints. :p

But yes, these are easy by design - a good contrast to the previous quiz. :D

Not bad, Grasshopper. A few are correct. I will reserve comment on how many, and which for a bit longer.
 
1. I'm going to guess on #1 later when I don't feel so lazy.:p
2. Vervet Monkey
3. Serval
4. Ringtail Opossum
5. Rockhopper Penguin
6. Snowy Owl
 
1 - eclectus parrot and maybe lorikeets.
2 - Vervet monkey
3 - Serval
4 - Cuscus
5 - Rockhopper penguin
6 - krestle maybe malagasy krestle
 
Thus far:

1. No one has specifically named all 4 birds in the photo
2. Vervet Monkey (AnaheimZoo guessed it first)
3. Serval (AnaheimZoo guessed it first)
4. GREEN ringtail possum (Beardsley Zoo Fan got it first)
5. Rockhopper Penguin - taken at London Zoo, so correct me if I am wrong (AnaheimZoo guessed it first)
6. No one has gotten this one yet
 
:eek:! DOH! Moebelle, we were in the middle of nanoboy's turn! :D You were supposed to wait for him to reveal his answers... :o

And btw, the second's an amethyst starling. :p
 
Good Lord, what was I thinking!? I meant to say golden-breasted starling!

And he'd like you to try and guess all 4 in the picture. If you're trying to get another turn, you'll have to try and get all the pictures right in one shot. ;)

Yeah, there is something really specific about those birds that could throw off your google searches. So ideally, I will be happy with specific guesses of all 4 birds. :D

AnaheimZoo, I believe that #6 is indeed a peregrine falcon, so that just leaves the first pic. (Thus far you have the most correct answers.)

So that would ensure that I get another turn!? :D

If so, someone can go before me, as I have to take tests at school tomorrow, and won't be home 'til around 3 P.M. EST. If anyone wants to go, feel free, but I WANT MY TURN AFTERWARDS!!!
