Saw this bird with some sparrows and looked different. Only got a photo with my phone before it flew away. Any idea what it could be? Duluth, MN today [img]https://i.imgur.com/ITyg3gS.jpg[/img]

Awesome!! Thank you so much. Tail was forked.

Seen in Duluth, MN today. Out of normal range just verifying.

MN today. Getting Lincoln sparrow vibes but my books don't show the definition of steaks on the breast. I'm not sure what the second bird is.

Sherburne Wildlife Refuge, MN today. Buzzy call.

My mom took this photo and was wondering what bird it was. It was large so she was going with eagle but is is an immature bald or golden eagle. South Dakota today

Was seen in Wisconsin this past week. Has more splotchy plumage than many others seen. Just wanted confirmation. Thanks!

Any idea what sparrow this would be. I know the sound it made to look but there are so many to look through! Zimmerman, MN today

It didn't have a yellow rump. Is that common? Here is the backside photo

Seen in the porcupine mtns in The upper peninsula of Michigan yesterday

Any recommended areas to see birds near San Diego and Los Angeles? Trying to see condors, California quail, jays, sea birds, etc. Coming from the Midwest so I'm trying to get as many species as possible. Looking through national parks some are closed for hiking due to condor populations. Any information is greatly appreciated! We are set to go to the channel islands to check out island scrub jays already! Getting excited! We are going end of April to early May.

I thought so! Just very unusual at this time of year here!

Is this a townsend's solitaire? Seen today Duluth, MN

Terrible photo taken from my car yesterday in the Sax Zim Bog. Was hoping for some guidance, if it is even identifiable.

Monte Sano State Park today in Alabama. Just looking for a confirmation of Black Throated Green Warbler.
