I took this photo back in February in the southern tip of Illinois. I was wondering if it was the Krider's variant of the Red-tailed Hawk.

I went out to get back in the swing of things and hopefully see some migrants, and I ran across this guy and for some reason I am drawing a blank. Can someone help clear my mental block?

I saw this goose in Brussels a couple of weeks ago - is it a domestic type or something else?

Seen at a very interesting place called Zaanse Schans outside of Amsterdam.

Seen 3rd week in August.

Seen between France and Ireland 3rd week of August.

3rd week in August, some of these may be the same but I have very little pelagic knowledge so hopefully you guys can help.

Was visiting and don't know the birds.. any help appreciated! This was the 2nd week of August.

I took this at Salineno Wildlife Preserve back in February and I can't remember what it is, can anyone help?

As a bonus, can you tell what the kill is? My guess is Anhinga.

Is there anything in these photos that can determine whether this is a Rufous or Allen's Hummingbird? I think these are two separate birds in the same place.

I've only been to Texas once and from looking at guides I would think White-tailed Hawk but on my list I only had Harris's Hawk written down for this location. There does seem to be some red on the wing, but the tail and chest I thought were wrong for Harris's. Maybe it's a juvenile?

Looking at Sibley, I thought maybe a Brewer's? Somewhat wrong location though. Seen last week. Thanks for any help.

I have here some scaup, and I assumed lesser, can someone verify lesser or greater for me? Also, my lifer Long-tailed duck - I thought female until I looked at the white on the back. Is it a male or female? Thanks for the help!

Can anyone tell what this gull is, seen over a lake today?

When I saw these I wrote them off as Mallards, but now that I look at this very blurry and distant photo, I wonder if they are actually Northern Shovelers. The bills look like Mallard but some of the body coloration looks more like shoveler. Any opinions?

I find gulls so difficult. Why can't they just keep one plumage? My guesses are Herring Gull and Bonaparte.

I saw this in the Uwharrie Mountains yesterday. It was raining so I wasn't using my good camera. At the time I thought it was thrush sized and I only got a glimpse. It's clearly not a Hermit Thrush though, my only other thought is Fox Sparrow? It doesn't seem to fit Song, and I think it was...

Can anyone tell what these are? They kind of look like Double-crested Cormorants to me, but I was also wondering if we are finally getting some ducks to migrate in.

I took these 3 days ago. Is one of them a Swainson's or are both Hermit? Swainson's is marked rare in ebird at this time of year, although it would just be a little bit late I think. I am looking at the spots which end pretty high up on one of them, but then I don't know their faces well...
