[Harriers and/or Cooper's? Seneca Falls NY 9/27/23]

A little aerial display by I think a Northern Harrier & 2 Cooper's Hawks?

[Female Red-wing? Seneca Falls NY 9/27/23]

Distant in flight pics, possible to ID?

[Another Warbler & Sandpiper, Seneca Falls NY 9/26/23]

We usually get a few around during migration. This one was with Pectorals & seemed too large for Least (also think the yellowish legs were a different bird). Another pic of the same bird below.

[Another Warbler & Sandpiper, Seneca Falls NY 9/26/23]

Possible Northern Parula & Least Sandpiper? (Sandpiper's legs appeared more yellow in other pics, but bill seems long for a Least?)

[What warbler? Senec Falls NY 9/26/23]

Wouldn't Blackpoll have yellowish legs/feet? Also seems too yellow overall for Blackpoll?

[What warbler? Senec Falls NY 9/26/23]

[Heron, Jersey City 09/19/2023]

Juvenile Snowy? What distinguishes this from a Little Blue Heron?

[Sparrow]

Bold eye-ring, pinkish bill, think this is a Field Sparrow? (Only a guess, looks better for Chipping?)

 

[Palm Warbler? Seneca Falls NY 9/17/23]

[Some sort of grouse? (Catskills of NY)]

I believe it's a blend of white (albino) and normal coloration of a Peahen (Common Peafowl). Peacocks are (or were) countable in some Southern Florida areas, and maybe in Southern CA? Pretty much anywhere else they are considered escaped domestic fowl.

[Gadwall & Ring-necked Ducks - distant shot Montezuma NWR NY 9/7/23]

Very distant & out-of-focus pic, think there is a Ring-necked Duck on the right & Gadwall on the left? (Ignore all the Coots & Pied-billed Grebes). Thanks.

[2 Lesser & 1 Greater Yellowlegs? Montezuma NWR NY 9/7/23]

Think the 2 on the left are both Lesser? (far right Greater Yellowlegs)?

[What Bird? Montezuma NWR NY 8/26/23]

First glance thought a Tree Swallow, but not sure what it is?

[Vireo & Warblers, Montezuma NWR NY 8/22/23]

Think first 2 pics Warbling Vireo? 2nd two pics Wilson's Warbler (faint eye-ring, bi-colored bill, faint trace of black on crown)? Last pic possibly Magnolia?

[Swallow & Sandpiper, Montezuma NWR NY 8/19/23]

Looking for an ID on these birds.

[Is this a Least Bittern?]

Agree with Green Heron.

[What sandpiper? Seneca Falls NY 8/19/23]

Not sure if identifiable pics?

[Unknown woodpecker]

Could it be a Hairy? Bill looks a little long for Downy?

[Fish Crow]

Side note; Fish Crows seem to be expanding North, getting fairly common in central NY. I would hesitate to ID either American or Fish Crow without hearing them (although Fish Crows are suppose to run slightly smaller than American Crows). The pic below was definitely a Fish Crow by it's call, taken in Seneca Falls NY this Spring.

[What Warbler? Sodus Point NY 8/11/23]

Was acting like a Common Yellowthroat in a wooded area (Beechwood State Park). Not up on my Fall warblers, thanks for the help.

[Sandpipers & Terns, Sodus Point NY 8/11/23]

Wondering if possible to ID these sandpipers and terns (note 2 sandpipers in first pic, one flying & the other on the right).

[Common Tern? Sodus Point NY 8/11/23]

Either Common or Forster's, either possible at this location? Would expect more gray underneath on a Common Tern?

[Brilliant red-bellied bird Central Texas 78070]

Okay, next guess: Painted Redstart? I had one North of McAllen a few years ago.

[Brilliant red-bellied bird Central Texas 78070]

Vermillion Flycatcher with back in shadow?

[Is this a Carolina Wren?]

Strikes me as Bewick's due to pale underneath, but I'm more familiar with Northern Carolina Wrens than Bewick's or Mexican subspecies.
