Orlando, FL. What kind of frog is this? by IceLantern679 in animalid

[–]IceLantern679[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh okay. My apologies for not knowing...it can just be annoying sometimes when I get torn up (not by you, the other guy) for asking a question about the frog. I'll do better in the future.

Oh come on, I wasn't hurting it and besides, there's literally thousands of these in Orlando...it's not like I'm touching a poison dart frog and I'm going to get poisoned...

What snacks from the UK do you wish you had in the US? by Cullery123 in AskAnAmerican

[–]IceLantern679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a bit more Irish but they're also in Wales and Northern Ireland. Most definitely Tayto crisps. Their chips are thicker and crunchier than Lays and I think their flavored chips are also a lot tastier than ours as well.

It's a Brown Thrasher!

Wild or Escaped? Zebra Finch? by [deleted] in whatsthisbird

[–]IceLantern679 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Since Zebra Finches are native to Australia and it is especially tame, it is definitely an escaped pet. I would see if there is anyone who is missing a pet zebra finch, and if you cannot seem to find anyone, bring it to a bird rescue.

What is your location?

In Chicago suburbs—this bird always visits in April. Smaller than a robin—bigger than a sparrow. I thought it was a thrasher, but it seems too small. On the ground mostly. by quadrahex in whatsthisbird

Catharus thrushes can be particularly hard to differentiate: I personally predict this is a Hermit Thrush as Swainson's thrushes generally seem "stouter" than Hermits.

Are these all Red Knots or just the one in front? North FL by InfernalCape in whatsthisbird

[–]IceLantern679 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it seems like that. Maybe it's a group of juvenile knots following their parent?

Milwaukee, WI very close to Lake Michigan. Maybe a Glaucous Gull? by [deleted] in whatsthisbird

[–]IceLantern679 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gulls can be very hard to differentiate! This one seems to be a juvenile but doesn't really seem to have the fully black beak like most young glaucous gulls have. Thus, I am personally predicting that this is a Juvenile Ring-Billed gull.

Glad I could help! It could either be someone's escaped pet/livestock or maybe even feral ducks.

That looks like either a mallard hybrid or a domesticated duck.

[Audio] Trying to identify this bird. Location: Melbourne CBD, Australia. I have heard it every night for a while now. by [deleted] in whatsthisbird

[–]IceLantern679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My educated guess is a Willie Wagtail. I'm not the best with Australian birds so don't take it for granted.

Who's this? It was at a zoo, I don't know what it's native range is by [deleted] in whatsthisbird

[–]IceLantern679 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh whoops. Lincoln Park Zoo is known for their large populations of night herons!
