    Lincoln's Sparrow is correct.
  2. The Bird Nuts
    The black on the face is only wet/stained/missing feathers. I think it might be caused by a plant (I don't remember what the plant is called) from which the Orange-crowneds feed.
  3. The Bird Nuts
    Seconded.
  4. The Bird Nuts
    Orange-crowneds are more green-yellow below and they have smaller bills, shorter legs, faint pale superciliums and dark eyelines, weaker broken eyerings, and faint streaking on the sides of the breast.
  5. The Bird Nuts
    Agreed, Chipping.
  6. The Bird Nuts
    I don't think it's an adult female. I think it's a young individual and I'm not sure we can tell the sex at this age.
  7. The Bird Nuts
    Agreed.
  8. The Bird Nuts
    I agree with Song Sparrow. Fox Sparrows also have less defined face patterns/eyelines, yellow in the bill, and streaking that is made up of arrow shapes (which is easier to see up close).

    Just saw some photos in another thread that made me think of your thread. Check out the last two photos (of a Northern Flicker) here: https://forums.whatbird.com/index.php?/topic/7414-sandpiper-finch-towhee-and-woodpecker-help-please/ Which one fits better, that Northern Flicker or the Lewis's Woodpecker? https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Lewiss_Woodpecker/id
  10. The Bird Nuts
    Agree with Say's.
  11. The Bird Nuts
    All are correct!
  12. The Bird Nuts
    That is a Palm Warbler. Note the wide, contrasting yellow supercilium, brownish cap, cheeks, and back, faint brown streaking, and malar/throat stripes. Golden-Crowned Warblers are Central and South American birds. Did you mean Orange-crowned Warbler?
  13. The Bird Nuts
    Tennessee Warbler (no wingbars, unstreaked back, dark eyeline, thin bill, short tail, white undertail coverts).
  14. The Bird Nuts
    1. House Sparrow 2. Northern Harrier 3. Song Sparrow
  15. The Bird Nuts
    This looks like a male Cooper's Hawk to me -- I don't think it's compact enough for a Sharpie.
  16. The Bird Nuts
    One foot is probably in a shadow.
  17. The Bird Nuts
    Agreed, Red-eyed Vireo.
  18. The Bird Nuts
    Lewis's Woodpecker?
  19. The Bird Nuts
    Yes, it is a Solitary Sandpiper (with a Spotted Sandpiper in front in the first photo). Its feathers are a bit raggedy.
  20. The Bird Nuts
    I'm afraid the photos aren't showing up for me.
  21. The Bird Nuts
    The gull on the far right is in front of it, obscuring most of its bill and neck (the black spot is the other gull's wingtip). I think it looks fine for a Ring-billed.
  22. The Bird Nuts
    Juvenile Cooper's Hawk with the thin breast streaking and small bill.
  23. The Bird Nuts
    Great Blue Heron.
  24. The Bird Nuts
    Carolina Wren.
  25. The Bird Nuts
    Young Cooper's Hawk. Red-taileds are bulkier with much shorter tails (brown with thin dark bands in juveniles, red in adults).
