    Find that Bird - Round 8

    OK, here's the next round!  I think this one's a bit harder than the last, but not as hard as Round 2.  We'll see how it goes, though.

    Remember, post only the bird's ID, not where it's located in the picture!  This will give everyone a chance to play.

    Here goes...

    Agreed -- a male red-winged blackbird.

    I am just horrible at these.  I have yet to find a bird on my own.  I even know what bird you are all answering with.  Sigh...Crying

    Don`t feel bad, cwj2323. This is the first bird I`ve been able find on my own and I had to download the pic and zoom in to 400% to find it.

    I would agree with Red-winged Blackbird.  (I'm assuming the photo is from Florida and the Tri-colored Blackbird shouldn't be there).

    Yep, that one was tough to find alright, but I'll go with the RWBB.  Great shot!

    OK, this one turned out to be easier than I thought.  And here I was thinking I was clever by using the Red-Wing's shoulder stripe as camouflage (don't you think it looks like part of the reed he's clinging to?)

    In case anyone is still stumped, here's the bird.  As for Round 9, I'll see what I can turn up this weekend.  I'm starting to run low on species, though... anyone else want to take a turn?

    By the way, congrats to lonestranger!  Somebody finally edged out Obnates for the first response!
