Tropical mockingbirds from Curaçao, pretty common but great subjects imo! https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/490233461#_ga=2.27503996.1329853829.1664868657-1235521333.1664437250 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/490231221#_ga=2.99215838.1329853829.1664868657-1235521333.1664437250

A Venezuelan Troupial, I always love to see and hear these birds https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/485825051

Thanks! I was quite lucky that I had the camera in my hand when he started to feed on that flower

Perfect, thanks!

One from the archives; taken on Sept 16, 2016 in Oviedo, FL

Came across this one yesterday; it's been a while since I looked down instead of up

Apparently the previous link does not work for the top photo, for anyone interested: https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/482282711

Maybe a bit late, but I’ll also hop on the Green Heron train 🙂 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/482282331 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/482284921

A Black-faced Grassquit from Aruba https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/473543171 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/473543041

Thanks for the input! Unfortunately I do not have other pictures.. the bird was gone too quickly @Peromyscus. Not sure about the Grashopper Warbler, the tail does not seem to fit in my eyes. If I look at the picture and compare with the Dunnock, I kind of see some similarities such as the gray neck and the small white wing bar. On the other hand the streaking does not seem to fit a Dunnock, as is the dark eye

An Eared and a White-tipped Dove from Curaçao, not sure which I like better https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/472485561 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/472485591

Thanks, I don't think it is a White-rumped as it is much less documented on Aruba. Western is also seen less than Semipalmated I believe so leaning more to the Semipalmated for me as well

This Reddish Egret was very cooperative; however, it was a shame that I could not get any closer due to the water.. https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/471765351 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/471764891
