I agree that it looks good for rufina, I have lots of experience in picking out montana and a few merrili birds from the local heermanni here in Sacramento, and that bird would stand out as being quite different from the subspecies I am used to seeing.

I had an absolutely insane day at the Outer Point in Marin yesterday! Had 17 warbler species, plus three Clay-colored Sparrows, an Orchard Oriole, and a probable Chimney Swift! The best day of birding that I have ever experienced! https://ebird.org/tripreport/77844

Wigeon?

Nice! It's getting late for OSFL, at least up here.

Happy birthday! Good luck tomorrow!!! Find something really rare so I can chase it on Sunday!

Looks wet

This is a Song Sparrow.

I'm probably not the best person to ask, as I've never seen a female Rose-breasted Grosbeak, but that upper mandible is pink, which strongly points to Rose-breasted. Black-headed always has a dark upper mandible. You can't see the breast streaking on this bird through, which is too bad. I'd say you're fine calling this Rose-breasted, but if I were you I'd wait for someone else to agree with me first.

Was the sparrow self found? I haven't seen any recent reports in Orange that I'm aware of.

The sparrow is definitely Vesper, and I'm leaning towards Rose-breasted on the Grosbeak. Still want to see the real pictures first.

I think that we might need to wait for real photos on this bird. I can't even tell if it's a truly a Grosbeak from these given the odd molt this bird is in. Is the upper mandible pink on this bird?

Sounds like a Squirrel to me.

Looks decent for Bullocks to me, that's what I'd call it here in California. It seems very drab. I don't have much experience with Baltimore though.

13,000 photos on Macaulay!

I think this is a Warbling Vireo. They sing much more often than warblers during fall migration, and it sounds right for the species.

I can't access the recordings. Maybe upload the recording to ebird as Passerine spuh than link the recording or checklist here.

It's a Northern Harrier

Yep! Looks good to me!

This was a photo nemesis of mine. Lesser Yellowlegs!

Man! I didn't realize that you had around 75 Common Terns on your Pelagic! That's a ton!

No, they all just look like Least to me.

That bill, it looks small, and I think the tail/rump is longer than it would be on Black.

Did the call out Arctic on your pelagic today? You don't usually see a lot of Sterna on these pelagics.
