Name That Bird!

Not clear in the images is a crest of feathers on top of the head.

 

Eastern kingbird.

 

Thank you.

 

My pleasure. I love this game.

 

Any guess's?

 

Some type of wren?

 

Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, eastern.

 

I'll play.
This one stumped me for most of the day a few weeks ago.

 

Here's one for ya:





Sorry, shot it with my phone.

 

Female Rose Breasted Grossbeak

 

Eastern Towhee

 

The Female got me...Males are so easy.

 

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner!

 

I have to confess, I'm a bird nerd. May is my favorite month of the year, with the migration and all the trees leafing out. Saw lots of birds this year. Warblers are my favorite.

 

Right on. I'm lucky, part of my job is birding

 

We normally have a lot of yellow-rumpers here. But the only ones I see regularly are pine warblers, and there is one specific spot in my neighborhood where I see them almost every time I walk past...lol

I did a birding festival a few years ago, and the one thing I took away from that was the call of the prairie warbler. I was out in Back Bay last year and instantly knew what it was when I heard it. I'm not very good with calls, other than a lot of the common birds in my neighborhood, so that's one area where I need to improve.

 

Here's another:


First time I'd ever seen one close enough to snap a picture with my phone.
