		Juvenile Northern Hobby is the only one that comes close, and there is nothing in the observer's notes or photos that would rule it out.
		He didn't elaborate on the alleged dissimilarities to Northern Hobby, but I can't see any (dissimilarities, that is).
		Maybe he meant the pale forehead and nape, but these could be faded areas that are rufous in fresh plumage, or maybe these are more noticeable in Asian than in European individuals.

		We will see a fine cross section of England’s birdlife: Bearded Reedlings and Eurasian Shelduck in wetlands, Gray Wagtails and European Dippers along waterways, Eurasian Hobby over heathland, nesting seabirds at Portland Bill, and Dartford Warbler in furze stands or possibly Woodlark in newly regenerating forest.
		The area around the lighthouse is a noted area for Black Redstart and Northern Wheatear, and migrants and overshoots from nearby Europe, and we may be lucky enough to locate a few specialties.
		Tintinhull is enchanting, with the influence of author and great plantswoman Penelope Hobhouse should still be discernable in the kitchen garden and the harmonious colour schemes of the herbaceous borders.

		After lunch in the woods we drove over the Ile River, stooping on the bridge to admire two Citrine Wagtails, and on to a Muslim cemetery situated in an area of bushes and small trees in another part of the desert.
		Then it was back up the Kokpek Pass where we checked a couple of rocky gorges The first gorge behind the cafes (which became affectionately known as Toilet Canyon because of the toilets at its base), yielded a superb soaring Saker, Himalayan Griffon-vulture, four Chukars, Rock and Whitecapped Buntings and Hume's Whitethroat.

		The first, 20 November-7 December, with up to 20 people in the team was outstanding with over 23,600 migrants being ringed, including two new species for the Ngulia ringing list: a Eurasian Hobby and a Eurasian Wryneck.
		There was only one Eurasian Nightjar, only two Tree Pipits, ten Rufous Bush Chats, no Northern Wheatears (and only one Pied and one Isabelline) and just 4 Upcher's Warblers.
		Species other than the four main ones were even more poorly represented than in 2000; 21 Eurasian Nightjars (admittedly 21 times better than the 2000 total), 2 Eurasian Rollers, 19 Rufous Bush Chats, 88 Iranias, 7 Common Rock Thrushes, 7 Upchers and 37 Barred Warblers and not a single Palearctic Wheatear.

		These are mostly fall and spring records, suggested that these presumed former captives still tend to move as migrants in season.
		The only Eurasian birds of note this season in the Maritimes, aside from waterfowl, was a Eurasian Hobby -- but editor Blake Maybank was quick to point out the ship-riding habits of small falcons, amply substantiated in the Sea Swallow, the annual report of the Royal Naval Bird Watching Society.
		Despite overwhelming circumstantial evidence that most of the Eurasian passerines notes around the Great Lakes were not of wild provenance, we still think it important for observers to record what they see and study individual birds in detail.
