Female birds will quite often look different than male birds. Most field guides, including iBird, use male birds as the dominant examples, so identifying females birds isn't always obvious.

Welcome to Whatbird, @ZenRider. I agree with the female Brown-headed Cowbird ID. Be sure to check out the North American ID forum for any future ID requests, it typically gets more attention than any of the other forums. ?

House Wren

I am having a love/hate relationship with my R6 and 100-500 purchase. I love the camera and lens, with a few exceptions that I really hate. Most of those exceptions could have been avoided if I spent the extra money on the R5. My biggest problem is adjusting to the mirrorless system. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but not being able to look through the lens until the camera wakes up is taking some getting used to. With a DSLR I can watch the birds through the mirrored viewfinder, even while the camera sleeps, and wait for the right moment to take the photo. With the mirrorless system, I have to keep the camera awake and chew up battery power just to see what the lens sees. It's a little thing, but being mirrorless frustates me at times and is taking some time to adjust to. Beware of the ridiculously fast shutter speeds, those 45MP RAW files will take forever to load and viewing large batches of photos can quickly become a tedious chore while you wait and wait between each and every photo. My 20MP RAW images cause delays in viewing so I can only imagine the time needed to view 45MP images. Good luck with your purchase, @chipperatl, I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

I agree with @blackburnian that it looks like a young Swan. I'm not sure which one, but young Swan gets my vote.

I don't keep lists so I have no problem shrugging them all off as, j___ another Gull.

I throw my hands up in the air when it comes to Gulls, too. I don't think I have ever opened a field guide to the Gull section. ?‍♂️

Downy and Hairy Woodpecker comparison.

I agree with the title, Mystery Bird for this ID. The first photo makes me think of a female Black-throated Green Warbler, but I don't get that feeling from the second photo.
