    Strange Hawk from Florida

    I saw this small Buteo hawk near Everglades in Florida on April 8th, 2017. My guess is obvious red-shouldered due to the location, but I find the bird very strange looking. The plumage is much lighter than I would expect from an immature RSH, and the dark eyes indicate an adult. What do you...

    2 more warblers from New Jersey

    Continuing with my warbler flight shots, I found two more. Taken at Higbee Beach, Cape May, Oct.15th. Both photos in early morning-light which can exaggerate the yellow color. Bird 1 - I am thinking Cape May or Prairie ? Bird 2 - I am thinking Blackpoll ?

    Brown Phylloscopus from Denmark

    Shot this very brownish Phylloscopus yesterday in Denmark. In the field it striked me as very brown (ala Dusky Warbler, so I had to check the leg color to rule that out). I couldn't see any green or yellow on it. It was in company of several tits and Common Chiffchaffs. I didn't notice the...
