Why? OP, please include location. Looks good for Black Duck x Mallard, though location obviously plays into that. edit:sniped
-
Not to belabor the point, but as AlexHenry points out, the smaller birds are definitely shearwaters, not gulls. Also, size at this distance is very difficult to judge because of parallax/flattening of depth at distance

Can someone explain why this is definitely an Albatross? I've never seen one but the wings look fairly broad, straight and short. I don't see why this isn't a gull.

Why is this 'definitely' not Archilochus? I personally don't see why this couldn't be a Ruby-throated. Females can sometimes have a buffy wash below

Gonna have to go with Traill's (presumably Alder) Flycatcher here -
Worm Eating Warbler vs. other

Is the duck in front 100% Mallard?
Hasan replied to dragon49's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
That's gotta be some sort of Mallard x Mottled hybrid/backcross. There's quite a few features that don't make sense for Mallard like the brown flanks, head and back coloration, and the greenish (Mottled-like) speculum. It's also too late in the year for an eclipse bird and intersex birds have a female-type bill. -
This is Cassins

Glaucous-winged Gull in Ontario?
Hasan replied to RobinHood's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
It's not well agreed upon what constitutes the features of a 'pure' Glaucous-winged Gull. You'll often find disagreeing experts from different places saying different things. That species/group is just a mess -
I'd say Ruby-throated
-
Head looks big on the first bird so I'd be more likely to say Bald but I could very well be wrong

Orange crowned Warbler

Yeah this is a Cape May. There's nothing at all really suggestive of Prairie other than a slight Prairie 'giss' in the second photo

I know, I know (another accipiter).

Agree with Coop with new photos -

Really? The bird has a notched tail and that eye is really big -

Last two photos are undoubtedly Cooper's but I think the first two are best left as Accipiter sp.

Apologies, I was misjudging the color of the bird's back, which I now see is blue. I agree with Western.

Not true; Mountain can have a quite bright reddish chest, this does not eliminate that species Example: https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/181776151 https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/45593501

Any more photos? I honestly don't think we can eliminate Mountain here. Either way, it'd be a great bird for the lower Sonoran desert for sure.

Looks pretty good for Cave
