    Yes, definitely a Veery.
  2. The Bird Nuts
    That is a young American Robin (gray/black upperparts, large white eyering).
  3. The Bird Nuts
    We have a Myna problem here...we should Eider stop or have the moderator lock this thread.
  4. The Bird Nuts
    Yeah, I see no evidence of hybridization - no yellow on the breast, wide mask, yellow wingbars...
  5. The Bird Nuts
    This is actually a Red-shouldered Hawk. Notice the thinner white tail bands.
  6. The Bird Nuts
    Yes, Red-shouldered (black and white barring on wings and tail). A Red-tailed would never have that tail pattern.
  7. The Bird Nuts
    Your first impression was correct - female Golden-winged Warbler.
  8. The Bird Nuts
    You KNOW?! 😮 Wow, you must see a lot of warblers.
  9. The Bird Nuts
    All are correct! Notice the orange toes on the Blackpoll.
  10. The Bird Nuts
    I don't know if this is what it was doing since there are no photos or videos, but in a lot of birds rapidly flapping wings is begging behavior seen in females (during courtship) and juveniles. The tail twitching seems weird, though.
  11. The Bird Nuts
    Cactus Wren? If that's not it, what was the main color of the bird and what was the color of the tail? Did you note shape and color of the bill? Any other markings on the face or wings?
  12. The Bird Nuts
    Chipping Sparrow (dark eyeline and lores, reddish cap, pink bill) in nonbreeding plumage, I believe.
  13. The Bird Nuts
    Too brown for an Orange-crowned. Pretty sure it's a Common Yellowthroat.
  14. The Bird Nuts
    Swamp Sparrow.
  15. The Bird Nuts
    It's a Cape May.
  16. The Bird Nuts
    That is a Tennessee Warbler. Note the lack of wingbars, the dark eyeline, and the white undertail coverts.
  17. The Bird Nuts
    Googling is probably the easiest way. I found this list: https://wildlife.ca.gov/conservation/laboratories/wildlife-investigations/rehab/facilities
  18. The Bird Nuts
    Blackpoll is correct. Could be a nonbreeding female or an immature.
  19. The Bird Nuts
    Yep, it's a Bushtit, but it doesn't look very young to me. Are you a licensed wildlife rehabber? If not, you need to take it to one or at least call one to find out what to do.
  20. The Bird Nuts
    Perfect. Thanks!!
  21. The Bird Nuts
    Can anyone confirm Swainson's? I THOUGHT I saw buffy spectacles on this guy (with my bins), but I was looking and taking photos through pine needles and branches... One original and one edited:
  22. The Bird Nuts
    Agreed.
  23. The Bird Nuts
    Yes, Song Sparrow is correct.
  24. The Bird Nuts
    I think the photos TERNED out fine!
  25. The Bird Nuts
    Philadelphia Vireo from this evening. Saw two together in one tree! ☺️
