I don’t often do forum swaps, but if I’m offered bird photos, I might be tempted, as I was by this Andaman Wood Pigeon (Columba palumboides) offered by @snailmailermk . Thanks again Manish.
It’s endemic to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and is non-migratory.

Oh, my last post here was in October 
. So I have a lot of birds to share. I think I will start with the seagulls today!
The “Dünendiva” (dune diva) from my last post is now accompanied by a “Plattschnacker” (someone who talks in (Northern) slang/dialect). After the lottery last time @Pappipapa743 has drawn my address officially last December. 
It maybe is an European herring gull?
And here are other seagulls I’ve received and one I’ve sent:
Edit: I missed a card.
