Diving duck in southern New Jersey (15 miles east of Philadelphia) - is it a female ruddy duck? Seen October 2022. Thank you!

thank you! it certainly caught me by by surprise. glad i got any pics at all ?

Here are some more birds from City Park 11/17-11/18 - thank you! 1) Hawk - seemed small for a Red-Tail but I think that's probably it 2) Hermit thrush? 3) Cormorants? May be different species here 4) gull

First time in this part of the country, wanted to double-check on some birds I saw. Taken 11/17-11/18 in/near City Park. Thanks for your help! 1. loggerhead shrikes? 2. flycatcher - eastern phoebe perhaps? 3. geese - greater white fronted? (there were many domestic in the park as well) 4. ducks - ring necked and greater scaup (the group was in a different park of the park from the individual) 5. this one was a mystery, i only got cell phone photos as it was running around on the sidewalk in a residential area (near a canal) at night - small and funny bird running quickly, didn't see it fly, maybe robin sized. is it a rail or woodcock of some sort?

Apologies for the low photo quality. Seen briefly outside my kitchen window in San Francisco, CA on Sep 27 2019. Is this a juvenile accipiter of some kind? Thank you!

i saw 2 very odd birds this weekend and after some research i believe these are my first phalaropes! can anyone confirm whether this is true and ID the species? both were spotted in san francisco bay area over labor day weekend. i have video as well if helpful. thank you!

thank you! here are the photos cropped, not sure it changes/confirms anything

i want to say this is a coopers hawk, but i am never too sure with these. is there enough in these photos to give an ID? seen yesterday near half moon bay, ca. thanks!

seen in june in southwestern pennsylvania, rural area. hopping around (maybe feeding?) in a running creek. thanks!

i briefly spotted this small raptor yesterday before it dove into some shrubs. not sure if it’s a coopers or a sharp shinned. seen in a suburban area in northern california, yesterday. any ideas? thank you!
