    Does Any red-bellied woodpecker have yellow between bill and forehead

    I have seen many red-bellied woodpeckers in many states, nad haven't noticed this. But has anyone seen one with yellowish wash between bill and forehead or am I seeing a Golden-fronted? If not, I may have seen Colorado's first Golden-fronted woodpecker last Friday.

    IDs from Cape Henlopen Delaware

    #2 looks like a wierd/molting House Finch. Maybe the angle but the bill look smallish. Could be a small billed Female BluGb the feather color is correct.

    Sparrow

    Don't LeContes have stripped napes? Every Le Contes I've seen have them. I have seen salt marsh sharp-tailes at Cape May & Brigantine. Grasshopper is possible, have never seen one in the open like this, except on fences, they vary alot (bill looks good too). So, my guess is Salt marsh StaSp

    Kingbird, but which species

    I have to agree, time of year, probably a molting Western Kingbird. Not dark enough to be Cassin's. Bill probably to small for the other yellow kingbirds. Thanks for the comments.
