Dark-eyed Junco

 

[Cardamom Pod]

Dark-eyed Junco is right! This one shouldn't be too hard, but I was amazed I could take a shot this out of focus!

 

[The Falcon]

Red-breasted Nuthatch?

 

[Cardamom Pod]

Nope. I haven't seen any of those this year, which is disappointing as I had hoped to see them when I when to Michigan.

 

[Azzy]

Prairie warbler?

 

[jmepler]

American Goldfinch?

 

[Reuven_M]

pine warbler

 

[Cardamom Pod]

Goldfinch is right.

 

[The Falcon]

American White Pelicans and a Herring Gull?

 

[Larry Lade]

American White Pelican and Laughing Gull?

 

[Cardamom Pod]

Hahaha, I didn't actually mean for you to guess as to the gull species, but it is a ring-billed gull. Also try not to get the answer right for a while, because I'm running out of bad bird pictures (Never thought I'd be sorry about that!)

 

[Cardamom Pod]

I was kidding about the not-guessing part. But maybe you're all just out enjoying the first spring migrants!

 

[The Falcon]

Just American White Pelicans then?

 

[Cardamom Pod]

Nope.

 

[Reuven_M]

Brown Pelicans clearly

 

[Cardamom Pod]

Yes indeed. They were everywhere down there.

 

[Reuven_M]

I'll say house finch. Are they the same species?

 

[Cardamom Pod]

Yes and Yes. I think it was a mating dance, since the male would hop around with his tail raised, and then he and another male would fly up in the air together.

Starling

 

[Azzy]

Indeed, starling...
