  • Please Confirm Scissor-tailed Flycatcher or Not

    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.

  • Seabird Identification: Pensacola, Florida

    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.

  • Need help IDing a bird in Florida

    I was driving along a residential street around noon today and I almost ran over this little guy.. or gal, I can't really tell. But I was hoping the bird buffs here could help me identify it. I'm a bit worried about it, it was dazed and confused when I came across it, it'd just open it's mouth and sit there, and with a little nudging it climbed up ...

  • I'm not quite sure

    I believe it is a Common Grackle, but the coloration pops so much. I'm just not positive. Photographed on the West Coast of Florida. Thanks in advance.  Jeff

  • Colorful Egret-like Bird

    I was driving around taking pictures of waterfowl at a wildlife refuge in North Texas and spotted what I thought was a juvenile egret. The refuge was designed as a habitat for migratory waterfowl, and this bird was in a large marsh/swamplands area. It was wading in a group with two adult snowy egrets and what I think was a juvenile. From a ...

  • Is this a type of Cardinal?

    I am just north of San Antonio, Texas.  We have had a bird coming to our feeder that looks like a Cardinal in all respects except it does not have a crown and it's whole head is a blue/black color.  The rest of his coloring is exactly like a cardinal.  Its tail seems to be longer tho.

  • Help me identify a brown headed gray bird - Thanks

    I live in Charlotte,NC and have been watching birds for 30 years.  This morning I saw a new bird that I can not find it in any book.  The closest seems to be a coastal bushtit, but those are east coast birds. It is about the size of a Eastern Bluebird (maybe a little smaller).  A quick glimps through my ...

  • Please help me identify this bird

    I was washing the car last week on a sunny day in Northern Virginia when I saw this guy in a tree.  I ran in the house and grabbed the camera and chased him down.  Sorry for the mediocre pics but hopefully they are clear enough to identify.  Note that when I saw him in the tree, he appeared to have no neck, when he was on the ground it was ...
