Catamaran about 15% from right edge, and just below the mid-line.

That's better, but the best I can say is that I think they are ducks. I see one that looks like a catamaran -- what is that?

I can't even identify one species in that tiny image.

Same here.

@Kevin???

@IKLland Thanks, I never knew how to do that either.

That's great Chris! You pick the next challenge.

Taken on 1-5-2022 in the afternoon on the Los Angeles River between Burbank Channel confluence and the Riverside Dr. bridge in Glendale, CA. I usually don't attempt to ID immature gulls (and I think this is one). There were just two gulls standing in the water (a Western and this one) and I'm just curious what this is. I have a couple guesses, but could be way off. I looked away to photograph some other birds and was going to come back to this one to get better shots, but when I turned back it was gone.

I thought that last one was going to be fairly easy. I hope this next one is much easier. Challenge: A photo containing at least 2 different species whose common names start with a hyphenated descriptor that is composed of first a color and second a body part. E.g. -- Black-throated ??? and Ruby-crowned ???

Congratulations! I was about to cancel this challenge and start a new one. Your turn to come up with the next challenge.

Great! That's a lifer for me.

Taken in the late afternoon over the Los Angeles River at Glendale Narrows Riverwalk in Glendale, CA. I identified several White-throated Swifts and Northern Rough-winged Swallows. This was the only one that looked different. The tail looks like Barn Swallow, but I'm not sure that the rest of it does.

Thanks all. That's cool I got a lifer on Dec. 31st.
