    Plymouth 2 MN, USA, July

    2 - Hard to say and lightening the photo didn't help, but from what I can see, tail seems too short and wings too sharp for accipiter.

    Damselfly Ohio, USA

    Damselfly on the Little Miami River near the mouth of the Ohio. I recently obtained a book "Dragonflies and Damselflies of the East", but with zero experience identifying damselflies it isn't as easy as I thought it would be. Help. Jim

    flycatchers Mid Missouri USA

    Willow/Alder for me. Primary wing projection and lighter patch at the lores. Great discussion on separating the Willow and Pewee here: http://www.birdfellow.com/journal/2012/06/09/an_under_appreciated_id_challenge

    USA Texas - June 2014

    2. Common Nighthawk? (Leaning towards Common not Lesser as the pale bar on the primaries seems located below the tertials). 3. Seaside 4. Another Seaside? (Absent a distinct yellow supraloral, look at the size of the bill and overall coloring. Don't know what else it could be.)

    Oregon Peregrine Age, Sex, Race?

    An intruder displaying at a Peregrine nesting site at Yaquina Head, Newport, Oregon. After some discussion, the local Peregrine watchers were leaning towards a juvenile male. One point of confusion seemed to be yellow ceres and lores but plumage juvenile. Quite a show!

    Townsend's or Black-throated Green Warbler?

    I do see some yellow on the vent and otherwise white where a Black-throated Green should be white. B-T Green for me too.

    White-fronted Parrot?

    That seems right - the green "shoulders" on the third pic would indicate a female.

    Can Somebody Please Help Me ID these Birds? - Inidan River County, FL

    Surfbirds.com has a very good article on separating Short-billed and Long-billed Dowitchers. I like Short-billed for this one. There is a slight droop to the bill about 1/3 from the tip. The supercilium is more arched.
