Briefly saw this sparrow at noon in northeast Ohio, long enough to snap an iPhone photo, which isn't very good.
The unusual thing about this bird were the very bright yellow marks that ran down and out from the inside corner of the pinkish beak - they show as white in the photo. I thought at first that he had something yellow in his beak.
Overall brown above, plain light gray underneath, grayish feet. Tan eye stripe running back from eye.
thanks in advance.

Saw this woodcock along a berm on a park road. It looks like a young one, but I can't figure out whether this is characteristic behavior for a woodcock or is it injured. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Pine Siskin never occurred to me. They're somewhat uncommon in Ohio, where I live, although Brown Creeper did come to mind. Very confusing when the photo isn't a good one.
Thank you all for your patience.

Same question, and why no replies?

One of the first things to do when endeavoring to ID an unknown bird is determine what the local and seasonal possibilities are.
Thank you - that’s a great help.
I used the iBird Pro app, and it showed the Broad-winged Hawk as a possibility. Other apps (Audubon, Merlin, Sibley) did not. Any comments on this discrepancy?
