    Nicaragua (Granada, Mombacho, and Morgan's Rock) help with a few birds

    I did see this bird nearby at the same time and initially thought it was a great kiskadee, but I revised to tropical kingbird. If you all think this is a kiskadee, then that might make a case for photo 1 being a kiskadee as well. Wish I could have gotten better photos of the ones that you all...

    Nicaragua (Granada, Mombacho, and Morgan's Rock) help with a few birds

    Hi, I'm going through old photos trying to identify the birds in them, and I have a bunch I can't ID from Nicaragua in May 2016. The photo called "Granada" was in Granada near the Parque Central. I was some distance away, but I would guess the bird was about the size of a robin. Hoping the...

    Eastern meadowlark? Stafford County, Virginia, USA

    Hi, I spotted these birds today in a field in southern Stafford County, near Fredericksburg, VA. I'm pretty sure at least one is an Eastern meadowlark, but at least a couple of them didn't seem to have the black collar/chevron on the chest. There were maybe 4-6 of them in the field -- hard to...

    Florida Everglades - snail kite?

    Hi, going through my old photos trying to ID birds, I found this one from November 2007, somewhere in the Everglades, probably around the Pa-Hay-Okee lookout tower. It was so long ago I can't remember any specific behavior -- it was just flying. I thought it might be a snail kite. Can anyone...

    Help with IDing some birds in Northern Virginia

    Thank you! There was definitely a female red-winged blackbird around -- that's what I thought it was at first, but when I looked at the photo and saw the white eye stripe, I went looking for a different bird. Thanks for the correction.

    Help with IDing some birds in Northern Virginia

    Hi, I'd love some help identifying some birds I've seen over the past few days. 1. Hawk (2 photos): one hawk was chasing a smaller hawk around (the smaller hawk, in turn, was chasing a blue jay) in a wooded area. I lost track of them in all the leaves, but I think this is maybe the larger hawk...

    Raptor? Dorrigo National Park, NSW, Australia

    Hi, I took a photo of this bird back in mid-March 2006 and have never been able to identify it. It was so long ago I don't remember any of its behavior aside from it soaring overhead. Can someone help? Thank you!

    Orange and black bird - Fairfax, VA

    Hi, I spotted a bird today that I can't identify in any guides. The closest I can come is a young scarlet tanager, but the pale breast doesn't seem right for that. It stayed generally in the mid canopy, mostly hopping along branches, but occasionally went to the top of smaller trees. It was...

    Hi everyone

    Hello forum, I'm taking advantage of being home all day not only to spend more time watching the birds outside my windows, but also going through my vacation photos and identifying birds I took pictures of. I have a bunch of birds I can't identify, so I came here looking for help. I'm just...
