ogurvits Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 If someone can help me with these IDs, I would really appreciate it! Thrushes are tough... Bird 1: Picture taken in May in northern New Jersey. The tail seems very short for an adult, but May is too early for juveniles.. Bird 2: Also taken in May in northern NJ: Bird 3: Picture taken in October in northern New Jersey. (The bird was inside my vegetable garden, and I took the picture through its enclosing net. It flew off in a few minutes without any problems.) Bird(s) 4: Picture taken in April in northern NJ. I think the gull on the left is a Great Black-backed Gull. But the gull on the right seems to be the Lesser. it looks smaller, the bill is darker, and there is some black around its eyes. Can someone confirm?
