Shorebird ID
birdbrain22 replied to Colorado Birder's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
I dunno...you may be right, but The side profile birds just do not fit for me. Also Dowitchers can sport an eye stripe at different stages and the extent of barring can vary as well. -
Is this simply a Song Sparrow?
birdbrain22 replied to richardcatero's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
I'm in for young Song also. -
Shorebird ID
birdbrain22 replied to Colorado Birder's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Hmm.... tough one. My thoughts are the 2 inner birds look like Dowitchers.... look very chunky. The birds on both outer sides look smaller/thinner and look good for Stilts... but the left most bird I can see as a Dowitcher too. -
handfull of poor pics
birdbrain22 replied to insanityslave's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Maybe Eastern Towhee for #1?... can't be 100% sure though. Both are Wood Ducks... the first is a male(the white cheek bridle can be seen), can't tell on the second. Agree with Red-tailed Hawk and Common Raven, as well as male Mallards on the additional pic. -
Several photo's to ID
birdbrain22 replied to Tim Emmerzaal's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Agree and the Wood Ducks are young males as well . -
In addition to Akandula's comments... the thickness of the bill and overall general size of this Royal Tern. As many IDs... the more field marks you can see or eliminate will point you to the correct ID.

Which vulture? Texas 78070
birdbrain22 replied to TexasCobra's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
And mixing in and circling with them too. -
Yes certainly a Hawk.... my guess would be Red-shouldered as well.

Yes 2nd year bird. A first year bird at this time of year will look like the female. Some of this years male will have a few black specs in the fall(mostly on face) and the yellowish parts will be more orange(but this is certainly always not easy to tell in the field). The following spring(second year bird) will show much more black speckling(including on chest)... like this bird and many will be almost fully in adult male plumage by the second fall.... but some will wait until year 3 to show off their full beauty.

Hawk species help please
birdbrain22 replied to Jim Morris's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Red-tailed Hawk -
Agree range say almost certainly a Gray-cheeked.

Little thing nesting in a tree hole
birdbrain22 replied to gstacks's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Yes that is a House Wren -
wood thrush or hermit thrush?
birdbrain22 replied to drtherien's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
That was regarding birds in seen in the winter in US. Most, well 99.99% are Hermits. -
It can take a few years to fully develop the deep red eye...

Zimbabwe Bird - Black Long tail
birdbrain22 replied to bobolink2014's topic in Help Me Identify a Bird Outside North America
I'd probably go with Meves... that tail is really long.
