This grackle fight from a few years ago was one of the most intense fights I have ever seen. While they both flew away afterwards, I wasn't so sure that was going to be the outcome.
-
That's it. I got the curved bill and fanned tail directly from iBird's description but I thought the "startling bird" comment might be the most helpful clue, was it?
-
Nope, not a thrasher, although the description could have fit any one of them.

Do you guys track with Ebird? Or not?
lonestranger replied to IKLland's topic in Photo Sharing and Discussion
Just don't turn it back on after you turn it off. I'm just being a silly, I know not what I talk about. -
Nope.
-
Mostly brown bird, bigger than a Blue Jay, fan shaped tail, with a curved bill. A very startling bird.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird?

lonestranger replied to DanM's topic in Discuss iBird Apps
I'm not sure how many members in these forums can offer help with the iBird apps. I suggest using the Contact Us link from the iBird website and send a direct request for help from there. Hopefully that will help since there seems to be little support available from this website. -
I'm having a hard time interpreting "medium sized bird" so this guess could be WAY off. Black-crowned Night Heron is kind of a medium sized bird if Great Blue Heron is large and sandpipers are considered small. Black-crowned Night Heron could also be considered a sort of large bird, which would make my guess WAY off. Like they say, size is hard to judge sometimes. Black-crowned Night Heron???

I'll bet that you are to blame for the feeder being empty, aren't you?

Really Close Pictures of Birds
lonestranger replied to Candydez12's topic in Photo Sharing and Discussion
This one was a too close mistake on my part back in 2009. I was walking the edge of a roadside picnic site looking for something to photograph when I heard birds making a commotion and sounding alarm calls. This piqued my curiosity so I wandered towards the sound to see if I could figure out what the commotion was all about. Well, it turns out that I was the cause of the commotion, or at minimum, added to the commotion. I was unknowingly getting closer and closer to this Yellow Warbler fledgling that ignored mom and dad's warning calls while I was misinterpreting them. -
Can't argue with that. 😁

Are you saying @The Bird Nuts is a poor artist?...or....

There was more than one oddball in this flock of Canada Geese. Gives a new meaning to, landing gear up.

All I have to do is move a little bit and the nice sharp photo of the branch is ruined.

Light Orange Breasted Bird NJ
lonestranger replied to Lisa NJ's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Welcome to WhatBird, @Lisa NJ. Eastern Towhee was my first thought too. The example in the linked photo might match the orange breast and wing bar you referred to. https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/275903281 -
Your Best or Favorite Photo of a Bird Species.

Nice photos @BigOly, but the bird of the week is Common Yellowthroat. -
Your Best or Favorite Photo of a Bird Species.
lonestranger replied to Kevin's topic in Photo Sharing and Discussion
I have better shots of Common Yellowthroats, but I always liked this shot of a male feeding it's adopted, and much larger Brown Cowbird. -
Aw shucks, all this attention is embarrassing.

What's Facebook? Is that a typo that was supposed to be Facebird? Typo or not, I'm not interested in websites with names that suggest getting in your Face.

I think a ring would look good on me.
