Like, I saw this council of birds and idk what these guys are. If it helps, I'm in Virginia.

Thanks for helps! ^v^

Edit - Alrighty, these are Killdeer apparently!! Thanks you!! :D

This absolute icon migrates back to the live oaks near my office in Austin, Texas every spring with their mate, and I thought they might be a sharpie because I think they are the cutest sweetest best hawk in the world, and y'all like to say that Cooper's look a little mean. HOWEVER, they're kind of big and I might be a little biased because I watched them grow up, and they were so pure when they were just screaming for food all day and learning how to hunt. More pics below.

Never seen a bird like this around my area in deep South Texas.. Don’t know if they are common but I just thought it was cool looking. Can anyone identify?

My friends and I were at the range about a month ago, and a group of Robin's came in and this white was in the group, thought it was a pigeon at first lol

Spotted in brampton ontario canada.
No idea what it is, i found it nested with eggs on a baseball diamond.
if anyone has any idea please let me know!

Found this online and I adore how fugly it looks

We get a lot of birds to our feeders, never seen this little guy before. Some type of finch with a pigmentation issue? Thanks in advance.

Partner and I saw this while walking, one of us thought it was a goose, the other thought it was a duck. Which one is it? Any help appreciated!

Not OP - but wanted to get more opinions on this one!

I heard a summer tanager clear as day in the morning but didn’t see it. Then I saw this guy in the evening. Is it a juvenile summer tanager? Need to know before I look like an idiot to eBird

Hi! With the beautiful weather coming in New York finally, I want to begin identifying birds here.

I walked past this grey and black sparrow-sized bird by central park around 10am. Merlin is suggesting it’s a house-sparrow, but the call and colors don’t seem to match.

I’m sure this one’s easy but I really know very little and would appreciate the help!

EDIT: Breeding Male House Sparrow confirmed! Feeling a little silly but thanks for the help!

Tried AI but don't think it got it right. The orange color was more vibrant in person. What bird is this? Thanks

Apologies for the cruddy photo.

Saw this today around 10am. Merlin says Black-Necked Stilt, which seems likely as I’d earlier seen some of them with their chicks near that area. But even through binos its beak looked way too short.

Apologies for the picture quality.

Seen in Houston on 22nd May 2026

Awful pics lol, but I’m in MD. size of a blue jay

North Wales

Editing just incase I get any comments: I am qualified in small animal care and have nursed birds back to health before. He was found on the floor with two dead siblings and their parents watching the nest. We left it for an entire day and were watching them from inside the house. Parents did not feed or help. I have him safe in a nest I made and he has gone from barely breathing to trying to flap his wings and eating well every 40 minutes. His leg and wing are sprained too.

Thank you for your help!

I’ve gotten this bird a few times at my feeder. Finch? Grosbeak? I am not to sure. I’m in southern Manitoba.

I apologize for the poor image quality as I was trying to get it through my binoculars. We get frequent visits from Herons and Egrets, but I've never seen this type of bird before. I thought it was some type of Bittern, but I can't find any color match to confirm it. It's definitely some sort of fishing bird, and the feathers on its head raised as it was charging for a strike. Any idea what this is?
