    Coopers or Sharp shinned? Deerfield Beach, FL

    So the best clue would be the skinnier legs? I also read somewhere that sharp-shinned hawks aren't often seen on telephone/light poles...I see a lot of em', just don't know how to tell the difference yet

    Coopers or Sharp shinned? Deerfield Beach, FL

    I lean to Coopers, they are common around my neighborhood but I just can't be certain...how do I know i'm not seeing some Sharp-shinned hawks every once in awhile? He had just nailed a starling and was being mobbed by mockingbirds, blue jays, and boat-tailed grackles...the sun was setting, this...

    SW Florida Kingbird ID

    I'm in no way an expert but it didn't look like a gray to me...seemed to have a black cap, but the bill looks a little big for an eastern...but again, I'm no expert

    SW Florida Kingbird ID

    Of course this guy set up in the one tree we couldn't get near at all...this was in Goodland, FL, right around The Little Bar. Didn't see any color on him but the light was pretty bad, he had a few friends with him too, sorry for the shite pictures...

    Which fish species attracting Streaked Shearwater?

    I don't know about amberjack, I've been catching those reef donkey's for decades and the photo doesn't make me think of one. But I agree it seems as if its not likely a pompano dolphin either... I have a friend in NOAA who is an fish-o-phile, he will know...

    Which fish species attracting Streaked Shearwater?

    I'd second this, definitely not a member of the jack family. The tail is similar to a trevally but the body shape is too long. I'd go with pompano Dolphin. And as for the second pic it is most likely a bonito, skipjack, little tunny, or another small member of the Tuna family.

    Virginia Key - South Florida - more help...

    Ok, added a few more to the list, I think, lets see if I was right on any of these: 1. I wanted to go with Herring Gull on this one but there is a lot of red on the end of the bill so i'm saying Yellow-legged Gull...
