1. Ruby Crowned Kinglet?

2.Bonaparte's Gull?

3. Telling mergansers apart - Which Type? Are the back two the same type as the one in the front? I think the front one is different. 

4. Is there any way to tell what this is? Is it a sparrow?

 

 

[Duck, sparrow and swallows Today South Central PA]

Thanks. 

[Duck, sparrow and swallows Today South Central PA]

1. Female Bufflehead?

2. Savannah Sparrow?

3. Type of swallow?

 

[Birds from yesterday, SW PA]

1. is this a phoebe? It didn't "say" anything, so I wasn't sure. 

2. Is there any way to tell if this really zoomed-in on Swan is Tundra or Trumpeter?

3. This is also really zoomed in. Is there any way to tell what the bird on the right is? I know the others are Ring-necked.

 

 

[Trumpeter and Tundra swans]

Thanks. 

[Trumpeter and Tundra swans]

These are two different birds. 

[Feather ID]

Thanks for the recommendation. Gotta get that one. Looks like it would be invaluable. 

[Trumpeter and Tundra swans]

SW PA,  yesterday:

Trumpeter or Tundra? (seen in large group of swans of over 200 in number at a state park):

1. 

2.

 

 

 

[Feather ID]

Thanks. And thanks for the link to the feather atlas. Did not know there was such a page. 

[Gulls from Yesterday, SW Pennsylvania]

Ok...I apparently can't see the difference. 

[Gulls from Yesterday, SW Pennsylvania]

The top one has pink legs. And a pink bill.

1. Juvenile Herring gull?

3. This one I tried to clear up but it is still bad:

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Feather ID]

SW PA, yesterday.

Was walking along in a State Park when I found a bunch of feathers (no "body", not sure exactly what happened there).

 

[Tundra or Trumpeter Swans?]

I was watching Tundra Swans and other waterfowl when three swans landed, while honking, and I could swear theirs was "different", so I made sure I got a few shots of them. Are these Trumpeter or Tundra? 

 

 

[Another brown duck]

Very possible, there were many around. I am not as good at identifying the females.

Today, SW PA:

 

[Small brown ducks]

SW PA, yesterday. Looking at the two small brown ducks in the front. Is there any way to guess what these might be? They seem a lot smaller than the mallard in the photo.

 

[Another bad photo of a bird of prey]

Thanks. 

[Another bad photo of a bird of prey]

Unfortunately spooked too easily. Any suggestions? Central PA location/State Park. 

 

[Duck and a Hawk]

Thanks.

[Bird of prey - Bad photo]

That was what I was thinking.

[Bird of prey - Bad photo]

Photographed with owls but I don't think this is an owl. 

 

[Duck and a Hawk]

SW PA, today:

1. Duck:

2. Hawk - Red Tailed?

 

 

[Ducks from Today SW PA]

I was kind of suspicious about #3.  It was there early in the morning and when I went back in the afternoon it was "still there" in the exact same spot. Someone needs to get that, it is probably going to throw other people off as well, although I did have to zoom in on it and where it was wasn't exactly easy to retrieve. But someone knows they left it there.
