feedback1="'''Incorrect!''' This species is called a House Martin, with its pure white underparts as well as a white rump and short forked tail.

feedback2="'''Correct!''' This species is called a House Martin, with its pure white underparts as well as a white rump and short forked tail. The bird's mud nest is usually sited below the eaves of buildings. They are summer migrants and spend their winters in Africa. Although still numerous and widespread, recent moderate declines earn them a place on the Amber List. [[Lizard Eye|WikiVet Article: Lizard Eye]]."

feedback5="'''Incorrect.''' This species is called a House Martin, with its pure white underparts as well as a white rump and short forked tail. Starlings are bigger birds with long legs and although its adult plumage may seem black in the distance, it is actually very glossy with a sheen of purples and greens. Unlike swifts, swallows and house-martins they walk and run confidently on the ground. [[Lizard Eye|WikiVet Article: Lizard Eye]]."
