I noticed this morning (at David Sibley's website) a set of images of
posters he has created. I thought these actually could be used as quizzes.
When you open the link, the font under each image is too small to actually
read, but the images (although small) show the collection of raptors,
waterfowl, and owls on each of these posters. Try identifying all of these
species without enlarging each respective image enough to read the text.
One of the other possible benefits to this is that the species are
displayed in a way to show their relative size (especially good to show how
the owl species vary so widely in size, for example). For newer birders
especially...
Here they are:
