Here is an oddity for these parts.... a Northern Gannet on the shores on Rye NH. A very cooperative subject was he !

This is our beautiful Olympic National Park the local weather and fires have given them a different look

How about a seascape (kinda)

Not the greatest picture, but a pretty good bird. Little Egret Little Egret by Patrick Felker, on Flickr

One of my favorites.... The Red-shouldered Hawk ! Like most raptors, the male (L) is smaller and and stockier than the female (R)

Agreed, pretty typical Louisiana.

I'd go with Louisiana based on the unstreaked throat, sparse streaking below, and bright white eyebrow.

The blue coloring isn't actually there- it's due to the lighting. The same thing happens with photos of Snow and Ross's Geese. For example, I have close up photos of a Ross's Goose that appears to have a bluish tint, but it's not really there. White birds can often appear oddly colored in photos.

Yes, a juvenile Song Sparrow.

Fort De Soto State Park FL. April 2018 I was watching this bird checking the elasticity of a worm and found it pretty interesting. Unfortunately I'm highly unqualified to state with any certainty WHATBIRD it might be. An expert opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Norm

Out of likes but awesome shot!!

Taken last week in San Francisco I think an Elegant Tern

Agreed.

Yes.

This was taken in Utah just a couple days ago,... I'm from Eastern Canada and I'm afraid I'm not familiar with it,..

I should have said a "one" winter home.

Agreed.

This is indeed a Warbling Vireo. Proctor Road is right at the base of the mountains, before the oaks and pines start. As soon as you start looking to bird out of your area, you'll learn this name. It's one of the best-known birding locations in SE Arizona, itself one of the top destinations for birders. Staked-out Elf Owls, hummingbirds, Elegant Trogons, Painted Redstarts, etc., etc. And to top it off, the last few years a nesting pair of Black-capped Gnatcatchers.

I'd say Cooper's, too based on the face. And judging by the chain link fence, this is a good size bird. Also nice shot! Love the faux grainy, ten-thirty-at-night wet-screen look.

I'm still here too! Yes, a Bobolink.

I can kind of cheat with this one, but here is a small flock of Chestnut-bellied Sandgrouse (aba code 3) and a pair of Eurasian Skylark.
