Taken recently in Pinal County, Arizona. Seen with brewer’s blackbird. Sorry for the blurry photo. Isn’t this a cow bird?

Thank you

These photos taken recently in scottsdale, Arizona. Does not look like a typical mallard to me. Has a breast spot also. Any help is appreciated.

Saw this very deep diving loon today in maricopa county, Arizona. Saw it come up only once in 30 minutes when I took photos. Bill looked yellow but thought it was because of morning sun. Common loons are there and saw a few. Since this loon was a deep diver, went back to same location and spent 45 minutes only to see it dive but didn’t spend much time on water to get photos. Enclosing photos I took the very first time I saw it. I am thinking it could be yellow billed based on photos but it would be mega rare here. Appreciate any comments,suggestions,ID.

Thank you

Thank you @HamRHead, @Trevor L., @AlexHenry. I guess I have not seen non-breeding male before! Didn’t realize they can have a ring on their neck too. Appreciate your help.

Please ID this duck taken today in Maricopa County, Arizona. one of the photos shows size comparison with canvas backs. TIA

Taken today in scottsdale, Arizona. Could it be a female Eurasian wigeon? see the contrast with nearby other female wigeons.

Thank you

These photos were taken on 1/5/19 at camp Verde, Arizona. We saw the raptor across the street from a busy highway. Could not get better views than this. Appreciate your help with ID.

Worm eating warbler LIFER today in Maricopa County, AZ. Very rare here.

I got the feedback for first bird from eBird reviewer that it is female ring necked : note the pale ring around its bill, its white eyering, and compact Aythya body shape.
