    ID help please, warbler like, Michigan

    1-3 I'm pretty sure is Warbling Vireo 4-6 I think is either Pine Warbler or Yellow -throated Vireo. Not sure if picture quality is good enough to separate. What do you all think? Thank you, Brian

    warbler like, Michigan, June 23rd.

    Thanks! I missed that as the male looks quite different. You happen to know if there is anything else in my area that would have a well defined long supercilium and double wing bar? Brian

    I'm almost certain this is Black-billed over Yellow-billed but can't definitively rule out immature Yellow-billed. Is anyone able to call it for sure? Thanks, Brian

    waterthrush ID help please. Michigan

    Thank you everyone for your input! My equipment makes it pretty difficult to get a photo clear enough for ID sometimes. I appreciate you all having a look at my blurry pictures and I'm fine leaving it unidentified if I'm not sure. Kind of used to it in fact when seeing hyperactive birds such...

    waterthrush ID help please. Michigan

    Northern and Louisiana both occur. I think the streaked throat makes it good for Northern but the legs looked pretty bright so I wasn't sure. Thanks, Brian edit: more blurry photos (e-j) added after many comment.
