jsarge007 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Please help me ID this bird. I took this picture in N. Central Massachusetts 7/18/2018 by the edge of a pond. I think it's some kind of warbler or possibly a Philadelphia Vireo. Thanks, Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MerMaeve Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 It is a Tanager of some sort. I would say Scarlet because of their range but looks to yellow so ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooFly Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Here’s a shot in the dark...Baltimore Oriole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooFly Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I was thinking Western Tanager, because it looks like it has yellow wingbars, but the undertaker is not dark, the head also looks like it’s starting to show a dark hood...any other photos by chance?
