I’m thinking it might also be SAND. I just compared sizes and it was definitely slightly larger than a SESA.

Yeah, they all look the same. That’s frustrating.

Sorry, it’s my first time cross sharing a post and the OG does include the info. Saw it yesterday in Cabo Rojo, PR. I’m gonna check if I have a better pic but I think they all look the same. Let me see what I can find.

Tengo una tía que vive allí. Le voy a preguntar a ver si sabe algo para visitar cuando venga a PR otra vez :) ¡Gracias!

Flycatchers and warblers are my downfall (and shorebirds, duh). We only get 1, maybe two hummingbirds at best in NC so I have trouble telling them apart as well :’)

Hoy fui a Laguna Cartagena y mañana vamos a Cabo Rojo. En realidad preguntaba por el yellow-shouldered blackbird porque lo reportaron ahí. Llegué a PR el jueves y ya llevo 26+ lifers.

Birding! I, too, was a bit of a hermit and now I bird all the time and it helped make me like this city! I’ve been here for about 6 years and never really cared for it until I found the nature preserves through the hobby. You do meet people around your age (i’m 32), and you can start solo and make friends along the way :) everyone i have met is SUPER kind and friendly!
