I'd be surprised if GBBG was a lifer for you. Maybe something weird like Slaty-backed

[jdeitsch]

1. Black-tailed Gull?
2. Grasshopper Sparrow or Lapland Longpsur!

[Indybirder]

1. Great black-backed Gull
2. Clay-colored Sparrow?

[Joejr14]

I am absolutely FLOORED that nobody got the gull. I really thought that it would have been the first thing that was guessed.

And yes, the gull in the front IS a GBBG, but that's not the lifer.

The two sparrows are different birds.

[Kryptos18]

Oh there's a Glaucous Gull back there... is that the lifer?

Okay, so we've got #1 correct. Someone also got one of the two sparrows correctly.

So who can come up with the correct answers for #2 and #3?

[Kryptos18]

I'm sticking to Swamp Sparrow for 2 and switching to immature White-crowned for 3.
