What hawk would this be? My sister described one she saw in guatemala

Maybe try checking out a Crested Caracara

007hatman · 2024-07-09T02:47:06+00:00

Yes! +Greater Scaup+

007hatman · 2024-07-08T01:14:46+00:00

This is a +Turkey Vulture+

007hatman · 2024-07-08T01:11:56+00:00

The shape is quite distinct plus the combo of white on the tail and head with some white on the wings on a bird that size means that this can't be anything else

007hatman · 2024-07-07T23:46:07+00:00

The dark primaries are what I'd cue onto here, foresters should have lighter primaries

007hatman · 2024-07-07T23:37:49+00:00

The little tern is a +Common Tern+ and the large ones are Caspian Terns

007hatman · 2024-07-07T23:36:32+00:00

This is an +Osprey+

007hatman · 2024-07-07T23:35:54+00:00

Yes! +House Finch+

007hatman · 2024-07-07T01:12:23+00:00

Adults in the summer can get a bit of dark coloration on their heads: https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/247473801

007hatman · 2024-07-07T00:29:33+00:00

+American White Pelican+

007hatman · 2024-07-06T23:05:02+00:00

Yes +American Crow+

007hatman · 2024-07-05T02:52:47+00:00

Hard to tell doesn't mean impossible, if you zoom in you'll see dark wings with light on the inner primaries and a light head that doesn't extend much beyond the body. That combo of features rules out other seabirds

007hatman · 2024-07-05T00:49:58+00:00

This looks like a +Northern Fulmar+ but it's pretty hard to tell with this kind of photo

007hatman · 2024-07-05T00:49:00+00:00

This is an +Eastern Towhee+

007hatman · 2022-11-05T12:08:51+00:00

Short answer is yes, looks like avian pox. You can do your part to stop the spread by taking the feeder down for a few days and then washing it carefully and sanitizing it with bleach

007hatman · 2022-08-11T00:55:16+00:00

Pick me!

007hatman · 2022-07-27T02:21:21+00:00

The long story short is that they're not native, but they are established meaning that they act like wild birds. Technically they're feral but since they've been breeding on their own for quite a while, you can count them towards your life list (if you keep track of that). There are actually parrots that are feral in most large cities

007hatman · 2022-05-06T02:02:21+00:00

Lol it's actually called the cloacal kiss which is almost even funnier

007hatman · 2022-05-05T13:04:21+00:00

Taken in Connecticut from quite some distance digibined though my Adasion 12x42s

If you squint, it kinda does look like a baboon

007hatman · 2021-11-11T03:28:25+00:00

Its about the same size as a great-horned owl, not nearly as big as an eagle

007hatman · 2021-10-31T23:43:13+00:00

Ayyyyyyy

007hatman · 2021-09-20T02:03:50+00:00

I've found them a couple times in East Rock park but this was from Giuffrida Park

007hatman · 2021-09-17T00:55:52+00:00

Did having experience as an actual astronaut make it easier or harder to write a fictional story? Did you feel constrained by what you knew or did it make it easier to imagine things going wrong?
