HI John, Heres a pic of a seaside I took during the summer this year,you can see how plain they are, good luck in the search for one!

Agreed,Savannah

Me either

The third goose from the left side on the bottom is a snow, the two above it could be Ross’s but I don’t think you could get an Id from the pics.. edit- sniped by Alex henry

Thanks, again. I see chipping now. the black isnt shadow,no sun there today to create shadows,it was raining like the dickens though.

Thanks!! the legs were bothering me also but the black kinda rules out chipping no? Several longspurs were reported there today in the same area with reports of different stages of plumage.

Cant see that last one being a chipping sparrow, heres another pic of it from the side,had to clean it up somewhat. still leaning lapland longspur to me. edit- and thanks for all the replies! you guys rock!

All taken today in lousy rainy weather in south jersey. Thanks in advance... Ipswich savannah? Saltmarsh or nelsons? looks like enough yellow wash for nelsons but I am not sure this might be the same bird Lapland longspur?

agree

confirmed

Also fall migrating Blackpolls are known to forage at ground level...

agreed,palm warbler

Common heres a pic of both together for you to see the difference edit- sorry common on the left,red breasted on the right

Common Yellowthroat

I agree,not enough brown and white mottling to make it a second year,and the full purple beak rules out third year...
