For this one, note especially the bill size and the overall structure. Westerns usually appear tall and slim(IMO). They’re also much bigger then Californias. Glacous-winged and Herrings are easier to tell apart.

Green-tailed Towhee, a lifer for me.

Yes

Agreed.

This looks like a Mallard to me.

Remember to include location and date.

Looks fine for Lesser.

Yup, I only have two photos and both of them are horrible. I’ll see what I can do this week.

From yesterday. My best TRES shot yet, hoping to do better when all of them are back in the spring and nest at this location. https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/529235431

@DLecy, thoughts?

I guess I can post my worst photo out of the ones I keep each day. In that case, here’s yesterdays. Horrible sharpness and image quality, lighting is harsh, and birds are too far away with a busy background and bad pose. Kept it because it’s only my third observation of Canvasbacks, and they’re a slightly more uncommon duck here.
