The Canada is just for size comparison, thanks!

This is has been a nemesis bird for me for years...thoughts? One by Fred Durkin, on Flickr two by Fred Durkin, on Flickr

There were definitely Eastern Wood-pewees around, but this bird was vocalizing much differently. I'll have to check for alternate calls. Thanks, for the feedback, I'll try for again for an Acadian tomorrow.

This would be a lifer, so I would like to make sure. Taken in Eaton County MI today. DSCN8926 by Fred Durkin, on Flickr Thanks for looking!

Ha! That is exactly what I did.

Hadn't thought of Blackpoll, but that certainly fits. Thanks!

With the prominent white wing-bars, I am hoping this is a Pine Warbler, but don't be afraid to dash my dreams. Tennessee or Orange-crowned maybe? Question by Fred Durkin, on Flickr Taken last month in Cloquet, MN

I was thinking possible Pintail also, but Scaup and Redhead were also up for consideration. Thanks for your thoughts.

Maybe I'm reaching here, but the bill doesn't look right. Today in Duluth, MN DSCN4432 by Fred Durkin, on Flickr

It's the throat that was throwing me off Red-winged. I've seen a ton of immature males, but never in this exact phase. Thanks!

The eyes aren't right for a rusty, but it can't be a female Red-winged. What do you think? DSCN4330 by Fred Durkin, on Flickr
