Hi everyone, can you please identify these 2 birds for me. The first bird was taken in Juneau, Alaska, near a lake and a glacier (some kind of tern), while the second bird was taken near Chicago Illinois. Thank You.

I'm thinking your Tern is an Arctic Tern.  Very cool photo!

The second is an Eastern Kingbird, I think.

Seconding the second is an Eastern Kingbird -- one of the newest on my life list!

Edited to add: Oops, I guess my seconding was actually a thirding! Wink
