Hi All, This Was taken March 28 at the Okaloosa Holding Ponds in Fort Walton Beach FL, morning. Assuming Greater yellowlegs but the eye ring looks more prominent... Solitary Sandpiper don't have the uptick in the beak so these would be greater yellowlegs? Picture 1 and 2? Picture 3 has a greater, lesser yellowlegs? Thanks for the help!

Hi All, Found March 29th at Conservatory Park in Panama City FL. #1, 2 & 3, Purple Gallinule - Lacking the White stripe and has the blue shield up top? Picture #4 - Northern Rough-winged swallow? Thanks!

I will Definitely start including more info! It's technically in Miramar Beach Fl, on the Choctawhatchee Bay. (Sandestin) Thanks for the ID!

Hi All, March 26th - Flying around the marina of the bay. Light was tough this morning for photos... Thanks!

Hi All, Destin Florida, March 25, 2020 I thought this was a Prothonotary Warbler at first... but realized its a pine warbler given the streaks on the belly, and wing bar? thanks!

Hi All, Destin, Florida - March 21, 2020 Thanks for the help!

Would you have any recommendations for what to look for, as in The best way to differentiate between laughing gull and Franklin’s during winter plumage?

Haha, Santa Rosa Beach, FLorida! Panhandle... aka lower Alabama!

Thanks for the time! I'll keep looking, cheers!

Correct, Front 3 are all chipping sparrows. Not sure about the back bird

There has been a Franklins gull reported here but not sure I could pick it apart amongst all of the Laughers... These were the closest resemblance - I was looking for: little Smaller than Laughing, Thick Split eye-ring, White tip on the wings(I did not see it in flight), Smaller bill... I was also told to look for "2-stripes on the head" but didn't understand that... #1 Bird on the Right #2 Bird in the Middle, Behind Boneparte's #3 Bird in the Front (Left of yellow legs) Hope this makes some sense, thanks!

Hi All! Santa Rosa Beach, Feb 22, 2020. A few randoms from today, thanks! Herring Gull and Female Brown-Headed Cowbird? vs Shiny? Thanks so much!

Hi All, Feb 20, 2020 - Santa Rosa Beach, Fl 1-Laughing Gull? 2- Orange Crowned Warbler 3-Song Sparrow 4-Forster’s

Thanks - The way the bird was perched had me thinking otherwise. Cheers!

Hi all! Santa Rosa Beach, Fl - Feb. 18th, 2020. apologies for the poor images and color… See fog was really heavy!
