Dan P Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 #3 is why I asked if the species were limited to North America. I ended up throwing a hail mary on that one. It must be a hybrid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went with a non-hybrid that is in the ABA checklist, but just barely. We'll see if I got it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meghann Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 You know it would be HILARIOUS if they were all the same species, just the one being melanistic or something like that. 😂 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Posted December 20, 2021 Author Share Posted December 20, 2021 Folks I realize the scoreboard is late and I apologize. I've had one heck of a week. Thursday I helped with the Fort Hood CBC and Friday I drove back to Nac and grabbed another Northern Shrike for the state. Saturday I was out all day Christmas shopping with the lady and didn't have even a minute to sit down at the computer. And today I helped out with the Nacogdoches CBC (got a Western Tanager! Woop!). Unfortunately tonight I have catch-up to do for my thesis because I've spent so much time doing other things so I don't think I can get to it tonight or tomorrow because I'm out of town again. Tuesday or Wednesday for sure! My apologies, once again. Thank you for your patience! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Posted December 20, 2021 Author Share Posted December 20, 2021 You know what, I'll post the answer now so y'all will have some closure and then post the scoreboard another day!  1. Carolina Chickadee 2. Black-capped Chickadee 3. Sichuan Tit! I threw this one in just to see what kind of answers I'd get! 😜 Not my photo. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirVive Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 The difference is obvious guys - the chickadees are dominant right 'winged' and number 3 is a lefty. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
