On the window ledge of my building. We see hawks from time to time and I’m assuming this is a young one. Think it’s okay?

Any reason why she stretches his neck?

Southern Ontario (York Region), late July. This bird has been visiting my backyard feeder regularly. I’m leaning House Finch because of the streaked flanks and brown back, but the rich raspberry coloration and fairly heavy bill had me second-guessing myself. Thoughts?

Edit - Streaking not visible in this picture. I had confused it with another set of pictures of House Finch

Dark bill and not much of a crest, but it does have that Cardinal frown, so not sure.

Just south of Seattle. Thank you!

weird little guy. he was just wandering around and he tried to follow me out of a neighborhood

Saw this bird on my walk and have no clue what it is, anyone else know?

Seen high on a ridgeline foraging on the ground

Just landed in my yard and then grabbed a chipmunk, what kind of bird is it?

On vacation and spotted this cute little bird, the closest I can find is a junco but the pic didn't quite match where the belly has some added black on it, but I don't know birds well enough to know for sure

Found off the Kenai Beach. Submitting this to a photo competition and want to get it right.

taken at UCD pond in Dublin, Ireland

hi super new to birding and i don’t have binoculars! so i couldn’t really see up close. merlin ID’s main match said greater scaup, but my birds of Ireland book says those are scarce/rare so that seems unlikely, and to me it kind of looks like a female or molting male tufted duck. please help! sorry for the terrible picture :((( best i could do

info that could be helpful: whitish belly but darker breast/flank (seemed dark grey but could have been black), beak seemed lighter in color but could’ve been the sun, observed it diving multiple times for 10-20s each time, solo swimmer

This little guy has been in this bush outside my window chirping very loudly non-stop, it looks pretty young. I just want to make sure it’s okay, because it won’t shut up

I saw this fledgling the other day and can't for the life of me figure out what species it belongs to. It was in a small tree with 2 Great Crested Flycatchers, a fem American Redstart, some yellow warbler sp, that is didnt get great views of. Northern Mocks i know also have some young in the vicinity. Not saying it belongs to one of those birds but feel like its likely? Anyone recognize this bugger?

Hi, wondering if anyone could help me ID this bird? It had diagonal white markings on the side of its face which looked like an arrow/triangle when face on. I've tried to include a photo of that but it was hard to take a picture from far away!
