I bought a book about #birds of #Europe almost 30 years ago when I was in #Sweden, it is one of the best books I have ever bought.

It came so handy even in the #US to identify the family of the birds or sometimes even the right name in #Swedish (to have a comparison).

I am trying to learn the birds in #France and their names in #French with the help of the book and found this image very useful. I have seen many of them here and when I was living south of #Paris.

Iran have a consulate in Paris? I thought they only have an embassy.
