Is this indeed a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher? If so, it is a bit out of place in North Florida. They are normally found in South Florida at certain times of the year.

What kind of bird is this:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0dZH-iKz48 ?  I found it on the beach in Pensacola Beach, Fl, and have seen them a few times.  They kind of flop up on the shore and just lay there like they are injured, but they aren't actually sick or injured at all.  Their legs are really far back too.

I have a question. I've been trying to find out what kind of birds I saw landing in my neighbor's tree a couple weeks back. I didn't think much of it other than it was too cold to see robins because of the bitter temps we've been having this winter. Then I saw an article in the newspaper about how birds from Canada and the Arctic are here in New ...

If anyone can give me some idea of who this bird might be I would really appreciate the help. This bird and I spotted (startled) each other at the same time.

He looks nothing like all our local pigeons and doves I've ever seen. One of his wings droops, so I'm also assuming he's injured. He is ...

Hello everyone.  Can anyone identify this bird for me?  This picture was taken this morning (05/30/09) in Santa Cruz, CA.  We found the baby yesterday and, with instruction from local wildlife rescue, made a new ''nest'' as the baby can not fly and we don't know where the original nest is.  Bringing it in at night for ...
