    Scarlet Tanager winter male? - Fernandina Beach / Amelia Island, Florida; 10/10/22

    I saw this bird in our fountain this afternoon. This time of year I have my painted buntings; the females and immature males are green, while the males have a bright red chest. For a moment I thought I had a molting male. But then I realized this wasn't a bunting at all, as their wings aren't...

    Unusually blue "greenie" painted bunting - Amelia Island, Florida

    I've been hosting painted buntings in my yard for more than 12 years now, and have a devoted group of at least a dozen who show up every season. (My husband jokingly refers to them as pests.) Occasionally we have an indigo bunting or two come through for a few days, usually February or March. A...

    Cape May Warbler? N. Florida

    I'm seeing some migratory birds hit my back yard this past week or so. I'm on Amelia Island, just off the NE coast of Florida. I don't know if I've ever seen this one, but I think it might be a female Cape May warbler, seen Sept. 29. What say you? Thanks...

    Help in identifying bird song - Amelia Island, FL

    I have heard this bird in my heavily-wooded back yard only over the last month or so (April/May). Not daily, but occasionally. I can't see it so I have no idea what it looks like. I live on Amelia Island, off the northern Atlantic coast of Florida, just below the Georgia state line. Can anyone...

    Birdsong ID - Amelia Island, Florida

    We have been stumped by the sound of a bird heard just after sunrise; we don't hear it any other times of the day. I live on a barrier island off the NE coast of Florida, just below the state of Georgia. I heard it this morning, and the fastest thing I could think to do was to grab my cell...

    Pls help identify yellow bird - N. FL

    I live on Amelia Island, FL, just south of the Georgia state line. I have seen a new bird in my yard this year that I am having trouble identifying. I've managed to get pictures of it with my birdcam. I was thinking yellow-throated vireo, the eyes and bill don't fit. Pine warbler doesn't either...

    Hi from Amelia Island, Florida

    Hello from the northeast coast of Florida! I found this site last night when I was trying to figure out what kind of bird I saw at my feeder. I am especially fortunate that I host painted buntings in my yard from October through April. They will be leaving soon until the fall, sadly. I have a...

    Not sure what this bird is - Amelia Island, Florida, USA

    I have a Wingscapes BirdCam where I can get photos of visitors to my feeder when I'm not at home. I am especially pleased to have painted buntings over the last 2 years. But this one (on the right side) is new to me, and I am not that experienced in identification. I know the cowbirds will be...
