1 More Bird ID

12 years ago

How many birds are we allowed to submit for ID a day? This is my second one but also my last for now. I always see these bopping around in a sunny, clear cut area right beside the road in front of my house. They fly back and forth from the tall pine trees to the high weeds. I don't recall any distinctive song and again, I apologize for the less than perfect image quality. My guess is that this is a Hermit Thrush but I'm probably wrong again! Again, I live in Northeastern PA.

Ovenbird. Good pic of an often hard to photograph bird that likes to stay in the forest understory.

Looks like this one is a Chipping Sparrow. Fairly common I guess, but had never seen one around the feeder as long as we've had it (a few years now).

True Linda - they are not yellowthroats - only looked a bit like them. I saw one in Nova Scotia 2 years ago (attached) and was reminded of it.

kbmas0n, No my kitchen isn't in the FKB. Everytime I go to take a lot of pics, they're either blurry or I have stuff all over the counters! I'll work on it one of these days. The white cabs are just a creamy white (kelly moore), but I don't remember the name and the glaze is a brown I picked up at Lowes and gave to my cabinet guy. The outer cabs are knotty alder, with some sort of dark stain my cabinet guy came up with. The island top is dark walnut and the floors are oak. appliances are subzero, dacor df, monorgram convection/mico, monogram compactor, miele dw, copper main sink, and shaws prep sink. Once I get some decent pics, I'll see if starpooh will put in the fkb. Thanks
