    Bird of prey ID

    Sorry for the poor pic, my GF texted it to me and wanted to know what it is. I am horrible at IDing BoP. My first guess would be a young Red-Tailed. This is in the Cleveland area of Ohio.

    What type of Warbler is this??

    Middle Tennessee, USA Warbler. I think i know what it is, but I want to make sure. This is the second year this pair have come to my feeders. Im wondering if its the same pair. Up until last year, I had never seen a warbler at my feeder. Or, is it a Vireo species??

    What kind of snake is this? Middle Tennessee

    I realized that after I posted it. What I meant was is it a corn snake, or a gray “rat snake”, black “rat snake” etc. it looks like a type of typical rat snake, but the head pattern reminded me of a corn snake, minus the typical orange and black colors. I don’t know how big this snake was, so...

    Is this a Warbler or a Vireo? (Middle TN)

    For me, its the hooked bill that is the give away that its a Vireo. The Pine Warbler doesnt have the hooked bill. Maybe Im wrong, Im not certain.

    Is this a Warbler or a Vireo? (Middle TN)

    OK, i think this photo will setle it. Finally was able to snap a half decent one. He just wont sit still long enough to get a good shot through the window. Looks like a Yellow-Throated Vireo to me. Thanks for all of yalls comments.

    Is this a Warbler or a Vireo? (Middle TN)

    Yes, its in middle TN. Yep, thats it! I had my GF, while she was close, tell me if the beak was hooked or not. That led me to guess it was a type of a Vireo, but I just didnt know which kind. I have never seen this bird, at least close and knowingly. Now that Ive seen pics, it is definitely it...

    Is this a Warbler or a Vireo? (Middle TN)

    I have never seen this bird at my feeder before. It looks as if theres a male and female. Im hoping theyre nesting nearby because Ive seen them almost everyday. Like most warblers and smaller birds, they are so skittish that its near impossible for me to grab my camera and get a good shot. So...
