    Lousy photo of a long tailed bird from Mazatlan, Mexico

    Think it is a mockingbird but the tail seems very long. Thanks as always

    Raptor from Prince Edward Island, Canada

    This is a really lousy photo - had my camera settings all wrong - so I could not come up with an ID. Any help would be appreciated. Photo taken August 18, 2021

    Birds from Saskatoon, Canada (wrens I think)

    The first bird I am pretty sure is a house wren. The other 2 pictures were from a different spot and it also looks like a wren but I think it may be a winter wren - no barring on the sides and somewhat mottled. As always, any help is appreciated

    LBJ from Saskatoon, Canada

    Saw this bird today in trees near the river. Not the best picture but maybe someone can help me.

    Stork/Crane from near Choibalsan, Mongolia

    I took this picture years ago and mislaid it! It was June 2006 on the steppe. I would love to know what they are.

    Waders from Denare Beach, North East Saskatchewan, Canada

    This series dates from late May a couple of years ago. I misidentified them as stilt sandpipers, but looking again I am sure that is wrong. There is a yellowlegs in the first photo for scale. Photos are from the shore of Amisk Lake

    Couple of birds from Mazatlan, Mexico

    Two pictures, both of which have a willet on the left. In the first picture I think the bird on the right is a short billed dowitcher In the second picture I think the bird on the right is a dunlin. The pictures were taken at different times in slightly different locations. The willets are...

    Sorry, terrible picture with my phone from a distance annd dark. This bird was on the beach and I think it is a yellow crowned night heron. We see tricolored herons quite commonly but this seemd smaller

    Parrots from Mazatlan, Sinaloa, Mexico

    Not the best picture I am afraid but it was the best I could get with my phone. My best guess is Mexican green parrot. Any help is appreciated.

    Hummingbird Mazatlan Mexico

    So this afternoon, no camera or binoculars and I see this busy little hummingbird that really struck me because of its russet colouring. Now the weather has been crazy this year. Is it totally impossible that what I saw was Allen’s hummingbird. I think rufous is even more unlikely. Thanks as...

    sparrow from Saskatoon Canada

    Deep in the undergrowth I saw this little bird last week. Suspect it is a youngster. Any offers?

    Unusual pairing from Saskatoon, Canada

    Saw these two sharing a fence together today. The meadowlark seemd unperturbed by the raptor nearby. I am pretty useless at raptors. Can someone tell me what this one is please? When it flew away I saw it had a white rump.

    Tern confirmation please (Mazatlan, Mexico)

    Is this an elegant tern? Not a great picture of the tail, which I guess would be a diagnostic. Thank you

    Couple of birds from Saskatoon, Canada

    The first of these I initially thought was an American Robin from the back but I am puzzled by the white speckles. Is it perhaps some sort of thrush? The second one I am guessing is a clay coloured sparrow. As always, help appreciated

    Bird by the sea (Mazatlan)

    Here is one from December 2015 which had slipped through the cracks (should have posted it months ago) Mazatlan has a coastline which is a mixture of sandy beaches and rocks. Usually quite a lot of wave action but sometimes pretty calm, as in this photo. The legs on this bird seem to be far...

    Mexican songbird

    Hello, A while since I have been on here. Saw this bird with a beautiful song today, singing its heart out from a power pole. The photos are terrible - I only had my phone. Any ideas? About the size of a kingbird but the song was different. I am in Mazatlan on the Pacific coast Thank you.

    Parrots from Mazatlan Mexico

    Any help with this would be appreciated. I appear to have captured a male and female but there are so many GREEN parrots that I can't figure it out!

    Waterfowl from Mazatlan, Mexico

    I have a feeling I am going to look stupid but I can't find a match for this bird in my books. It was in a coastal bay near a lot of fishing boats just bobbing around.

    Flying duck in northern Saskatchewan

    Most of our birds have headed south. Saw this large duck two days ago and I don't know what it is. It was about the size of a mallard but they have all left and it has a reddish bill.

    Warbler confirmation from Saskatchewan

    I think this is a juvenile yellow rumped warbler. Am I correct?

    Waterfowl chick from Northern Saskatchewan

    Took this yesterday. There was no sign of parent birds and I was concerned that this little guy would not survive, but, he was there today and looking a bit bigger! Any ideas what he is?
