Typical October group -- Quiz

Typical October group. Mixed ages, mixed species, mixed feelings.

I like this format for a quiz like this quite a lot. Rather than having to list a label for each individual you can instead solve for each variable. The other nice thing is variety for a single variable -- that is to say if, for example, you know what adult X is, then all the immatures labeled X are the same species.

Variables X, Y are rather straight forward as there are multiple birds to help ID. 

Variables V, W, Z, however, are of single immature birds.

Determine each variable (5 marks).

Bonus if you can assign the number of different age groups associated with each variable.

V =

W =

Example: 

V =                Audouin's

W=             Black-tailed

X =                      LBBG

Y =            Slaty-backed
