    Waterthrushes Texas

    Saw these Waterthrush on April 9 and 25th respectively in High Island Texas. The first, I know, is a Louisiana, but it seems that the white is notas white as I would expect for the Louisiana. It does have the sparse streaks especially compared to the second bird, and the birds definitely look...

    Hudsonian vs Black-tailed Godwit ID

    I posted the wrong picture on my previous post trying to differentiate the Black-tailed Godwit from the Hudsonian Godwit. I thought that I had taken pictures of the Hudsonian before I found the Black-tailed. Here is a picture of the bird that I found after the Black-tailed flew off (#1) Also...

    Denver CO and surrounding area

    I had to check to see if there was a Double-breasted Cormourant. I agree with all of the IDs except it is a Double-crested Cormourant. I might have called it a Neotropic if I had seen it here, but the Double-crested is the only one that should be there.

    Black-tailed Godwit Texas

    A Black-tailed Godwit is being seen in Texas, A state first. I am having trouble differentiating the difference between that and the Hudsonian that is with it. I am posting 4 pictures and would like you to tell me which one is the Hudsonian and why. Maybe they are all Black-tailed Godwits...

    Vireo in Central Texas

    Hey Grebe, check out the juvie White-eyed Vireo Pics... They do not have white eyes. In case you didn't know that. I really didn't think that I saw a Bell's that day, but I guess I took a picture of one. I was actually leaning towards that, but was not happy with that ID for some reason...

    what is this wader?

    I can't tell what the small shorebird is, obviously why I am posting similar species for my identification issues. I am wondering if that is a Greater Yellowlegs with the Willet, but maybe somebody who knows more will post.

    Texas shorebirds and mergansers

    I have real problems with shorebirds and would appreciate some help with these shorebirds and mergansers that I saw a couple of weeks ago in Galveston, Texas. Would you please tell me what the identifying traits are?

    What makes a good bird?

    After seeing the Snowy Owl in Dallas, and all of the excitement that it caused, I have been trying to figure out what gets people's birding juices flowing. I can see why the Snowy Owl in Texas would cause quite a stir, but they are seen up north a lot more consistently and they still get people...

    Nikon ED82, P5000, FSB-6 problems newbie

    I just bought a Nikon P5000, FSB-6, and the 16x24x30x eyepiece to go with my Nikon ED82. I was really psyched about getting to take advantage of my scopes glass. I am trying to get more reach than I get with my Sigma 150-500 and D90, and I had all sorts of problems. I went out yesterday to...

    Flycatcher in Texas

    I thought that I had posted the short primary projection. EricCarpenter, a top birder of the area agreed that it was probably a Least. My problem is that I doesn't look like a dwarf with the big head and smaller body that I associate with Leasts. Least sounds like the best option though...

    Flycatcher in Texas

    I saw this bird in the Hill Country of Texas this weekend. It has been suggested that it is a Gray Flycatcher. I think that there are some issues with that ID, the tail seems short, the bill is dark and short.

    Sparrow Texas

    This bird was seen just west of Houston last week. I was thinking that this was a Chipping Sparrow with leukocystic lores, but that is my guess.

    Flycatchers in Idaho

    Any good books as resources for this? I have a number of guides and some other books, but really need to be better at recognizing what I see and what I don't see in terms of what people are trying to point out to me. Thank you all for your responses. I believe that Chris has it right, based...

    Flycatchers in Idaho

    I was wondering if the white outer tail feather on 4 was significant. That is why this picture is in the lineup. I believe that 3,4and 5 are the same bird. Sorry I didn't remember that when posting this.

    North Carolina USA - Info on Prothonotary Warbler

    Hey AWOLFF, The prothonotary sounds like this http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Prothonotary_Warbler/sounds My first thought was Northern Parula, but it may not be what you hear, and I am not sure if you even have them in North Carolina. http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Northern_Parula/id
