    The flycatcher is in the Myiarchus genus, but that's as close as I can get you with any certainty. Scott

    Glad to be back

    Hey, I'm back. I was not able to post for a few weeks last April, and then gave up entirely. I re-registered under a different name yesterday to ask if they could fix my old account, and here I am. It's nice to be back. Thanks to the webmaster(s). Scott

    Thanks for the comments and opinions. I am not surprised, especially given it was seen on a city lake. Scott

    Can anyone ID this Gull?

    It's photos like this that remind you that birds are little more than feathered dinosaurs. Scott

    Shore birds - St. Petersburg, FL - ID request

    I agree with all, but 4 and 5 (don't know). I was in that area last week and only found about half of those....but I got some nice terns and gulls and a long-billed curlew. Scott

    ID in So Cal, USA

    The dark iris would eliminate common grackles and male brewers. Scott

    Glossy vs White-faced Ibis

    Even the first winter birds would have red eyes by late march if they were white-faced wouldn't they? BTW, I have no experience with these two species, so just a question to consider. Scott

    Long billed or short billed dowitcher - Gilbert, AZ USA

    No doubt that shorebirds can be a bit tough, but separating dowitchers in this plumage is about as tough as it gets. Scott

    Hawk ID - Costa Rica (Red-tailed vs Swainson's)

    Neither red-tailed or swainson's for me, but I'm not sure what it is. It does appear to be an immature buteo though. Scott

    ID confirmation. Corpus Christi, Tx, USA

    Not an expert, but an all dark bill would indicate first winter/first summer as suggested by James (much more of an expert). Scott

    Is this some kind of merganser?

    This is a first year male. Males have dark bills. I've never seen the speckled throat either, but I mostly see adults.

    What is this yellow bird?

    The wet streak idea is probably correct, but it is an odd looking bill. Are there any more photos of this bird?
