    Where was this?
  2. The Bird Nuts
    Agreed.
  3. The Bird Nuts
    I'm thinking the OP (zeunak) was either seeing the black stripe that is between the eye and nostril (shown in your photo and the photos I linked to) or just the nostril which I guess could look dark in certain lighting. I could be wrong, I don't know how well the OP could see the bird. :)

    Hmm... Not sure if those links are going to work. I meant to link to this one: https://bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com/fredericknewspost.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/c/96/c967dcd4-a481-52f7-9f30-aaeec511f24b/569fded271d04.image.jpg And this one: https://usercontent2.hubstatic.com/5223407_f520.jpg

    Sounds like a Turkey Vulture to me. Take a look at these photos HERE and HERE and the others on Google. As we always say, size can be difficult to judge.
  6. The Bird Nuts
    I think it's a Savannah without yellow supralorals.
  7. The Bird Nuts
    This is a young Cooper's Hawk. Remember to include date and location next time to help narrow down the possibilities. :)
  8. The Bird Nuts
    Yes.
  9. The Bird Nuts
    Yes, looks good for an Orchard Oriole.
  10. The Bird Nuts
    Gadwall.
  11. The Bird Nuts
    I think it's just an adult male Mallard molting into nonbreeding plumage.
  12. The Bird Nuts
    Ah, I hadn't noticed you had written "This bird was found outside our front door on it's side". It must've collided with something...that's too bad. :(
  13. The Bird Nuts
    Agree, Red-tailed with that band of streaks around the belly. The light eyes plus the barred tail are indicative of a youngster.
  14. The Bird Nuts
    Black Oystercatcher.
  15. The Bird Nuts
    Pine Siskins are known to be tame. Unless it looks lethargic or has very ruffled feathers, it's probably fine.
  16. The Bird Nuts
    At this time there is no subforum for birds outside of North America, so I think you should be fine. The edit feature has changed -- you are not able to edit posts after five minutes or so.
  17. The Bird Nuts
    Young Northern Mockingbird.
  18. The Bird Nuts
    Why not a N. Rough-winged? It doesn't have a well-defined light throat which I would expect to see on a Tree Swallow at any age.
  19. The Bird Nuts
    I think all are Eastern Wood-Pewees.
  20. The Bird Nuts
    Western Kingbird.
  21. The Bird Nuts
    Mississippi Kite?
  22. The Bird Nuts
    Juvenile Pied-billed Grebes have striped heads.
  23. The Bird Nuts
    Juvenile Common Gallinule, I'd say.
  24. The Bird Nuts
    Yes, Orchard Oriole!
  25. The Bird Nuts
    More likely a female Boat-tailed since it was a rust/tan color. https://farm9.static.flickr.com/8221/8420676607_baa7912e38_b.jpg
