Red-tailed hawks are ubiquitous here, and the sound of the call seemed right, but the call just seemed to go in the wrong direction: lower to higher instead of vice versa. Thanks for the help!

Good idea: here Thanks!

I uploaded the video, and it shows it is attached, but I cannot get it to play.

Thanks, both of you!

What I think is an Orchard Oriole was photographed today (through a window). The Nashville Warbler was photographed in the evening of May 13. Both in my backyard (Davenport, Iowa) and both would be lifers. I have had a Baltimore Oriole or two this year, but haven't seen any in a week or so. (The orange was placed up there by my kid; it was removed after I saw how dirty it was in this picture. Fresh orange is up now 🙂 ). Thank you!

Thanks!

THanks!

I thought it was a Loon when I was taking the photos. Zoomed up and saw the white bill and thought it must be a Coot. The white on the side doesn't match, though. I'm stuck. Stockton Springs, Maine August 30, 2019

Wow! Thanks, everyone. My Sibley's Guide is from 2000. 😂
