Thanks!

Jefferson, CO Sept 22, foothills riparian area I was watching an Orange-crowned Warbler in the same spot then noticed in photos that this bird is different, it seems to be a vireo. Is it possible to tell which one from the poor photos? Warbling would be most likely. Thanks!

Broadview, Yellowstone County, MT, Sept 5th Merlin came up with Kingbird or Phoebe, I'm stumped.

Thanks all!

Hays, Blaine County, MT Sept 6, 2021 Got one poor photo of bird, thought at first it was a Townsend's but didn't quite fit, thought maybe a Blackburnian or Black-throated Green. Thanks for your help!

Jefferson County, CO today, about 8100ft in the mountains. I'd like to id the song with the descending scale in the video. Thanks! 20210608_100741.mp4

Douglas Co, CO today Larger than a peep, upright posture, yellowish legs. Other feedback suggested Least Sandpiper but the bird didn't seem that small.

Great, thanks! I thought it might be, but had it in my head that phalaropes were much smaller compared to yellowlegs. Was pretty sure about the Greater, but thanks for the confirmation!

Thanks! Here's a cropped photo of the Pectoral with a lighter colored bird that seems to be different.

The more rusty colored one, right? So the lighter colored birds are also Greater Yellowlegs?

Adams Co, CO last week. I wanted to confirm that most are Greater Yellowlegs and there seems to be a couple that are not, ID would be appreciated. I don't see shorebirds often enough to ID at a distance. Thanks!

ID from another source confirms Nashville Warbler

Lake McBride, Iowa last week. Checked the undertail plates in my warbler guide, my guess is Wilson's with what appears to be a mostly yellow head.

Adams Co, CO today I have no trouble IDing them in flight, or year 3-5 Bald, but perched confuses me for years 1-2. Is this a subadult Golden or Bald Eagle? Any tips on IDing perched eagles greatly appreciated!

I just listened to Common Yellowthroat calls, definitely what it was, a much harsher chip sound than the others. Thanks again for your help!
