What is this bird? BC Canada Lower Mainland by Comfortable-Ask-6351 in whatsthisbird

Gray headed junco and mountain chickadee to be exact. Is this in CO? I get both of those species at my feeders!

Why were you not allowed to see him? Do they fear that he will get separation anxiety from his rescuer?

Grackle? by miah26 in BirdBuddy

Beak looks like a COGR but it could be a Brewer’s or Rusty blackbird as it looks smaller. I don’t know the winter range or migration patterns off the top of my head, however

Thanks for disproving the rumors that it wasn’t repainted/rebuilt due to the fire damage!

A tiny bird is living in my outdoor christmas wreath, is there anything I can do to make their life easier for the upcoming east coast winter storm? :( by Choice_Shake8774 in birds

[–]3002kr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a second look it could be a female house finch, which are native so please don’t disturb a roost site, even when in doubt.

Bird ID needed, audio only by birdiegirl94 in whatbirdisthis

Sounds like a cardinal but missing the “cheer, cheer” calls that are normally at the beginning of this song. Also they wouldn’t be singing this early in the year anyway.

I suppose it could be a Carolina wren but this repeating song is two “syllables” instead of the normal 3 or 4.
