[Yellow-throated Warbler?]

Thanks

[Yellow-throated Warbler?]

Here is what Merlin identified as the Yellow-throated Warbler every time it did a chip call.  You can hear it at 5 seconds and 8 seconds.

[Yellow-throated Warbler?]

Saw this bird on Jan 18th on the Yucatan, specifically Valladolid.  Merlin identified its call as Yellow-throated Warbler.  Did my best with my phone camera.  Got many angles, but not the throat.  It was flitting about in the top of a palm tree just after dawn. 

Hoping somebody can work with these pictures.  

 

[Which birds visit feeders on the beach?]

Thanks, Charlie

[Which birds visit feeders on the beach?]

If I hanger a feeder at a beach house (surrounded by dunes and grasses) on St George Island, Florida in November, will I get any birds? I saw Palm Warblers, but nary a Chickadee, Titmouse nor Finch.

[Yellow-billed Cuckoo?]

Thanks for the confirmations. I hope to get better pics soon.

[Yellow-billed Cuckoo?]

Sorry about the lack of picture quality. Had to take the pictures with my phone.

Roswell, Georgia on Sep 18, 2021, near Big Creek and the Chattahoochee River.

Bird definitely had a yellow bill. Slowly moved its head while peering into the canopy.  About the size of a Robin.

[Tiny Bird Eating Bug. No Clue.]

Thanks to all repliers.  The size is about right for Blue-gray Gnatcatcher.  My first thought looking at the first picture was a long downturned bill.  Zooming in, I think it is the bug.  Other pics confirm the bug theory.  I ruled out Blue-gray Gnatcatcher because of color; hence "no clue".  I guess color is not reliable due to photo being back-lit.  

[Tiny Bird Eating Bug. No Clue.]

Oriental, NC.  June 8, 2021.  This bird is about half the size of a Purple Martin.  Sorry about the quality of the back-lit photo.  Maybe the experts here can see ID marks that I'm missing.

I put dried meal works in my feeders on purpose to attract eastern phoebe, northern mockingbirds and carolina wrens ?

Thanks!

Just now, The Bird Nuts said:

Eastern Phoebe is correct.  All About Birds says they'll occasionally eat fruits and seeds. It's a young one with the cinnamon wingbars, so it was probably curious.

Thanks.  Makes sense.  

[Phoebe on a Feeder?]

I have read that Eastern Phoebes do not visit seed feeders.  And yet, I saw this bird eat sunflower hearts.  Sure looks like a Phoebe to me, but I hope I'm wrong; it would be a new bird if I'm wrong.

P.S.  Roswell, Georgia on May 31, 2021.

[What Heron?]

Saw this bird on Pig Island in Saint Joseph Bay near Port Saint Joe, Florida on January 12, 2021.  Size was comparable to nearby Snowy Egrets.  

[Snowy Egret?]

Thanks for the Snowy Egret confirmation.  I'll start a new topic for the heron.  

[Snowy Egret?]

This is a better picture of what I thought was a Great Blue Heron.  I hope it is not.  

[Snowy Egret?]

Saw this bird on Pig Island in Saint Joseph Bay near Port Saint Joe, Florida on January 12, 2021.  It seemed to be a little smaller than a Great Egret, and the bill has a lot of black.  The picture that shows it near what appears to be a Great Blue Heron is included for size comparison.  

[What Duck?]

Thanks to all for the quick replies.  I have seen this bird before, but not when I had a good camera.  Life list just got a little longer.  

[What Duck?]

These birds were in Saint Joseph Bay near Port Saint Joe, Florida on January 12, 2021.  Looks like a duck when it flies.  

 

[Birds I photographed have bands. Should I report? If yes, then how?]

I took this picture of two American Oyster Catchers on an oyster bed in Apalachicola Bay, near Saint George Island, Florida on January 28, 2020 at 5:15 PM.  I just noticed that both birds are banded.  Should I contact somebody to report their location on that date?

It could be an immature male at this time of year.

Thanks, The Bird Nuts.  I'll definitely be on the lookout for the whole family.

Purple Finch. The strong face pattern and thick, short, dark, streaking eliminate House Finch.

Thanks, Kevin.  My life list is longer now.  ?

I see it now.  I have been looking for my first Purple Finch for years, ruling out thousands of male House Finches.  I never looked for the female.  I should have.  

[Another brown bird, no clue]

At first, I thought this was a Song Sparrow, but I see no dot on its chest.  Taken December 12, 2020 in Roswell, GA.  

 

[Red-shouldered Hawk?]

Taken on the Chattahoochee River in the north Atlanta suburbs on August 29, 2020.

Nice photo.  They are hard to photograph

Thanks, hbvol50.  2000 shutter speed helped, but it was not flitting about as much as the first time we saw it.  I wonder if it was looking for the source of the call it heard from my girlfriend's phone.

Yes, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher. Congrats!
