#1: House Sparrow fem.
#2: I really can't understand this picture, but since everyone is going with herons and egrets, I'll guess Great Blue Heron (both morphs), again!
#3: Merlin

 

[Sue Wright]

No 2/ White Ibis?
No 3/ Osprey?

Others no idea!

 

[Progne Subis]

Good guesses everyone, but AStevenson hit the nail on the head! All correct, Bachman's Sparrow, Snowy Egret, and Osprey.

Here we go again!

 

[Sue Wright]

Hi Tayler and congratulations AStevenson

So is it possible that

No 1/ White Ibis?
No 3/ American Anhinga (Snake Bird)?
No 4/ Blue Heron?

 

[Progne Subis]

Hi Sue,

Sorry, none guessed correctly yet.

I'll wait for a few more posts until clues are provided....

 

[jocateme]

#1 Wood Stork
#2 Northern Mockingbird
#4 Double-crested Cormorant

 

[Sue Wright]

I don't know about Double-crested, but I'd certainly go for

No 4/ being a Cormorant.

Wow, BirderBF! Impressive, 4/4 :clap:.

Okay, now for something completely different...

 

[AStevenson]

Meadowlark - lord knows which one from that crop!
Great Blue Heron
Laughing gull
Brown Pelican

Cheers
Andrew

 

[Progne Subis]

Nice going Andrew! 2/4 with Brown Pelican and Laughing Gull correct.

As for the other two, I think any clues will make their identities a bit too obvious. So I'll let all of you smart folks figure it out...

 

[Sue Wright]

No 2/ White Egret or Great White Egret?

 

[Progne Subis]

No 2/ White Egret or Great White Egret?

Yup! #2 is a Great Egret (Ardea alba). Nicely done Sue...

Now that just leaves the... thing that has yet to be "IDed".

 

[Sue Wright]

Yellow-breasted Chat maybe?

 

[Progne Subis]

Nope... Go fish...

 

[Sue Wright]

Smith's Longspur?

 

[Progne Subis]

Sorry, no again. This bird has a long beak...

 

[jocateme]

Brown Thrasher?

 

[Progne Subis]

No Thrashers here. This bird also has a distinctive, musical song though...

 

[birderbf]

Eastern Meadowlark!

BTW I can't figure out what I'm looking at in the Brown pelican photo. A little help?
