Help with these two please
PascalNJ replied to briancdn's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
I agree with Blackpoll for the first (streaked back, yellow/orange feet, ...) but I think the second is a Red-eyed vireo. The face pattern is too strong, with the black line above the eye. -
similar in size to a cardinal - longer tail - Soft gray - white splotches on each wing : this could be a good description of a Northern Mockingbird. Yes, Where and When would be a good idea.

Help with a Flycatcher and a Vireo
PascalNJ posted a topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Hi All, I saw these two birds yesterday in Northwestern New Jersey, near the Delaware Water Gap: https://ebird.org/hotspot/L4667640 The first one is, I think, an Acadian Flycatcher: compact shape, green overall, flat forehead, narrow eye ring, medium length primary projections. Sorry, I don't have a picture with the tail. Can I get a confirmation? The second one is likely a Red-eyed Vireo. But, I find the bill to be very narrow. I don't have other pictures to show the head. So, Red-eyed or something else? Thanks for your help. -

Portugal Birds
PascalNJ replied to cccougar's topic in Help Me Identify a Bird Outside North America
1- a redstart, a common redstart, I think 2- white wagtail 3- ruddy turnstone 4- male european blackbird I hope you enjoyed your visit to Lisbon, itβs such a beautiful place! -
Thanks ... again. Yes, I think the first one is a Anna's and the second a Costa's. Third, I'm not sure. As for the fourth one, you're probably right. Because of the rufous sides, I thought it could have been a broad tailed (they are a few reported in the area that late) but the color is not extensive enough.

Bump !?

Thanks. Hopefully, others can help with the others.

Hi all, Happy New Year. I was last week in Arizona, Phoenix and Tucson, and saw a few hummingbirds. I'm afraid I'm not good at identifying them, so I'm hoping to have comments or confirmations. Thanks Picture #1 - What: Possibly Anna's - Where: Granada Park, Phoenix, AZ (https://ebird.org/hotspot/L815678) - When: Dec. 23 Picture #2 - What: I think this is a Costa's because of the white / light grey underparts - Where: McDowell Mountain Regional Park, Phoenix, AZ (https://ebird.org/hotspot/L388509) - When: Dec. 24 Picture #3 - What: male Costa's ? - Wher

Great ! Thanks for your help.

Hi All, What: I'm not quite sure if these swans are Tundra or Trumpeter swans. Tundra have been reported on ebird on this lake (https://ebird.org/checklist/S61865647) and I think I can see a light colored spot at the base of the bill on some pictures. But I'm not sure so I'd like opinions. Sorry, bad pictures. Where: Bamber Lake, NJ (https://ebird.org/hotspots?hs=L4145068&yr=all&m=) When: Today, Dec 3 Thanks !

Ok, thanks ... again.

What: I think these are Swainson's Thrushes, 2 different birds (pictures 1 & 2 are one bird, picture 3 another one). Please confirm. Where: Dry Tortugas NP, inside Fort Jefferson When: September 19 Thanks!

Summer Tanager - Confirm
PascalNJ replied to PascalNJ's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Thanks for your help! -
Hi, I'm still processing the about 1K photos I took during my recent trip to the Keys and I need confirmation on a few birds. What: I think this is a female Summer Tanager, yellowish overall, light colored bill. But eBird reports only 2 Summer Tanagers on the Dry Tortugas on September in the past 10 years, so I'd like to make sure. Where: Dry Tortugas NP, inside Fort Jefferson When: September 19 Thanks!

Tern in Dry Tortugas NP
PascalNJ replied to PascalNJ's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Thanks, that's what I thought, but Common terns are not supposed to be very "common" in the Dry Tortugas (at this time of the year?). So, just checking. -
Tern in Dry Tortugas NP
PascalNJ replied to PascalNJ's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Hi, Maybe with the links instead of the embedded pictures? http://www.pascald.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/201909-SouthFlorida-5R5A2066.jpg http://www.pascald.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/201909-SouthFlorida-5R5A2075.jpg I realize I don't know how to insert links to pictures that will not embed the picture into the post ... -
What: on a day trip to the Dry Tortugas NP, I saw a lot of interesting birds (frigatebirds !) including 2 tern species: Sandwitch and Royal. This bird here is neither, I think it's a Common. Where: Dry Tortugas NP, Bush Key When: Sept 19
-
What: I'm pretty sure that this is a White-eyed Vireo but, because it (obviously π) doesn't have white eyes and the yellow on the face is not as extensive as on pictures I have seen, I'd like confirmation. I'm assuming it is an immature bird ? Where: The Everglades NP, at the Mahogany Hammock Trail, low in the trees near the boardwalk. When: Sept 17

Hi, I was last week in Florida, got a lot of interesting birds, but I can't decide what this hawk is. What: I only saw this bird for a little while. It was mobbed by blue jays and, after the first 3 pictures, when I tried to get in a better position to get other pictures, it flew away. I couldn't even see it flying, so I really have no idea. A "simple" red-tailed, or something more interesting? Where: Spanish River Park, Boca Raton, FL When: Sept 16 - mid-day
