Christa Godfrey Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 I am stumped by this one. Sorry the lighting in the photos is not ideal. Shots taken at Big Morongo Canyon (near Joshua Tree National Park) on March 7, 2019. Thanks for help! Christa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christa Godfrey Posted March 11, 2019 Author Share Posted March 11, 2019 Ah, the dawn comes slowly! I'm sure you are right, Ivory Bill and Nighthawk. There was another photo in this series of what was clearly a Ruby-crowned Kinglet. It was confusing, as there were numerous birds in this thicket. The posture and shape of body and head in the two photos I included looked so elongated, and un-Kinglet-like, my mind just couldn't go there... Maybe just the angle made the bird look more stretched out. Thanks for sorting this out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
