You know these birds on the Decline Of CD...
Does anyone know what they all are?

Top row

Peregrine
Golden eagle (or maybe a white tailed sea eagle)
Sparrow hawk

Bottom row

Buzzard
Raven (or possibly a marsh harrier)
How would they survive back in the wild?

Excellent answer, ta.
I now feel prepared for all possible questions if I get this tattooed on my shoulder.

I think middle top might be the harrier, actually. Golden eagles have straighter wings, sea eagles longer faces.

Deffo a raven at the end though, spade-shaped tail is diagnostic (as I believe the professionals say).

If I ever had a tattoo (and I won't because I'm a scaredy-cat), I'd have these birds too.

You may be correct. Profile wise I still think its an eagle, but if the birds are proportionate to one another then it must be a harrier
