To me, the absence of dark patagial marks is already a strong indication. Then markings that are more concentrated on the chest, which doesn't give the belly band / clean chest look often (not always) seen on RT, strong tail bands, not the sort of thin, dilute banding of RT, and the light crescents at the tip of the wings, clearly seen on the second picture, all this points to a red-shouldered, not a red-tailed.

Birds at Tracy aviary, Utah
PascalNJ replied to DaBirb's topic in Help Me Identify a Bird Outside North America
I don't think any of these birds is North American. The first one is a Seriema. They are the last surviving relatives of the extinct Terror Birds. -
How about a Nuthatch then. Based only on the second picture.
-
Least. Yellow bill and white forehead.

Spotted whistling duck?
-
These are Guans, I think. Maybe Blue-throated piping guan, but I'm not sure of the species. South American birds, I have seen related species in Brazil.
-
Depending on where in Alaska, they have been reported in the south part. But rare, obviously.

How about a Catbird for the first one?

Scarlet or Summer in bad light?
PascalNJ replied to floraphile's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Undertail coverts are too red and contrasting with the tail feathers to only be a shadow. At least, that's my opinion ? -
Scarlet or Summer in bad light?
PascalNJ replied to floraphile's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Scarlet, I think. A Summer would have a red tail. -
Yes, I wasn't sure about the actual eye color (hence "This could be..."). The picture is underexposed and makes it difficult to clearly determine eye color.
-
This could even be a Boat-Tailed, due to dark eye and very long tail. Depends on where in Nthn NJ this is.

Wilson's Plover with this big bill. -
White wingtip patterns on gliding birds
PascalNJ replied to dragon49's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
I agree. https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Turkey_Vulture/species-compare/70706101 Ospreys have dark wing tips, not white. -
Is this identifiable?
PascalNJ replied to Tanager 101's topic in Help Me Identify a North American Bird
Yes, I agree. It even has the black line above the eye breeding males show. I don't think Black-tailed are seen in Colorado. -
is this white-lined tanager?
PascalNJ replied to msilver2's topic in Help Me Identify a Bird Outside North America
Melodious Blackbird I think. Look at the bill.
