Thanks to both. I thought that the white forehead on the first indicated non-breeding Common, but I see that’s not the case necessarily.

I saw these two terns today by San Francisco Bay. I think they are Common and Forster's, but I'd sure like to hear what you think. Many thanks.

Thanks, Charlie!

Saw these grebes yesterday on San Francisco Bay. I'm pretty sure they're Clark's Grebes, except I'm a bit confused by the one with the "underbite". It's lower bill extends beyond the upper in the manner of a skimmer. Is this a deformity? Or perhaps an injury?

Trevor, To correct my list (thanks to people on the forum: not Anna’s but rather Costa’s Hummingbird; not American Kestral but rather Red-tailed Hawk. I also saw some Yellow-rumped Warblers in Indian Canyon; also what are probably House Finches. -

Lovely photo! -
Thanks!

Apologies for the many asks today. Saw this hawk a little outside Joshua Tree National Park in California yesterday. Is it a Red-tailed? Thanks!

Finally a hummingbird other than an Anna's! Thank you!

Hi all, I saw these hummingbirds in and around Palm Springs, California, over the last few days. Are any of them Costa's Hummingbirds. I've also got some photos of an apparent female that I could post. Thanks!
