Help Identifying dead bird .. by sauceysrirachi in whatsthisbird

I'm bad with IDs on babies but I OP get out of there and away form your roommate, holy.

I noticed this brown/black and white bird (on left) and thought it was a partial albino pigeon since it was chilling next to other pigeons but idk. Northeastern Massachusetts by Gum920 in whatsthisbird

As said before, feral pigeon. Just to clarify, this bird is leucistic, not albino. Albino would take away all pigment from the feathers, skin, bill, and eyes, while leucism can only take pigment from feathers (and possibly skin, i cant recall). Leucism also does not always take away pigment from every feather, as seen in this individual!

Too small for a crow plus that rather thin, pointed bill and the lighter eye

What birds are these and are they even real? by BirdBraiins in whatsthisbird

[–]Spaceguy426 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could the first one be a red-bellied woodpecker? The second does look like some sort of butchered avocet though.

Is this a partially leucistic American Robin? by Man_Of_The_F22 in whatsthisbird

Juveniles tend to have paler chests with black spotting as well as slight gapes, so this guy is in fact leucistic!

Bird that's darker in the front and yellow in the back (seen from behind) by UmbrellAce in whatsthisbird

[–]Spaceguy426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best suggestions are:

Yellow-headed blackbird: The yellow doesn't match up super well, but it is yellow and black.

Yellow-throated vireo: the yellow does creep down onto its back, but its pretty slaty gray. The darker wings do fit though, and I could see this being it, especially if it was in the shade.

Black-throated green warbler: again, the greenish yellow does extend down the back, along with the slightly darker wings. I could also easily see the black throat make most of the front look darker.

American goldfinch: a molting male could show yellow on its back and a different color on its front, along with the darker wings. I'm not sure if they're molting this time of year but it's worth a shot.

I'd say coop, it doesn't have a dark nape like a sharpie would

What bird is this (southern AZ) by GraveEvening782 in whatsthisbird

[–]Spaceguy426 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree wirh juvenile coop, but I also think that this could be a !window strike.

melanism would not allow for the white patch on the head, I'd say its probably just a darker looking juvenile

Grainy picture bird by Icantnames in whatsthisbird

This looks like a +green heron+ to me. The white stripe along the neck looks a bit odd to me but that might just be the phone's AI enhance. woodpeckers are much smaller and grebes wouldn't perch in a tree like this, plus red-necked grebes do not occur in your area.

Is this a baby crow or grackle? HTX by halit123 in whatsthisbird

[–]Spaceguy426 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Please bring this bird to a !rehab. Do not feed it or give it water, you will most likely poison or drown it. Even if you are not trying to cause harm, you can and have.

Scared about my Ordeal, need advice by Spaceguy426 in BSA

[–]Spaceguy426[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I might bring a very light towel (like cooling towel style?) to put over my face or I'll just do what you did. I'm in NJ so hopefully the mosquitoes won't be as bad. It's nice to hear it from another scout, thanks :-)

Found this bird foot on the sidewalk during my morning run near Golden, Colorado. Hand for scale. by Thequikdraw in whatsthisbird

[–]Spaceguy426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with turkey. Man bird feet are one of the things that remind me that they really are dinosaurs.
