Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.
If Merlin is incorrect, I'd love if the experts on here could identify. Thanks so much!
I'm in Central Connecticut, United States. The picture was taken yesterday afternoon
To me it looks pretty good for red-winged blackbird, do you hear them around there? They have a very distinct call
We have seen and heard them, but I was surprised how different the females look compared to the males
Looks like red-winged to me as well.
Central CT here, too. Great shot!
Thank you so much! My spouse and I tried the Merlin app, and got hooked on the birds around our neighborhood. We're in the Southington / Farmington area.
Glastonbury here. Other side of the river.
