Excellent job in getting these wonderful pictures of birds into their categories. We so enjoyed getting to recognize more species.
Question: Why is the Evening Grosbeak listed under the category of finches, whereas the Black headed Grosbeak comes under the heading of Cardinals?
Also we have seen male and female Brewer’s Blackbirds.
Thanks again Daphne & David Hyde.
The organization of the list is taken from “Field Guide to the Birds of North America”, third edition, published by National Geographic.
Where and when did you see the male and female Brewers Blackbirds? Thanks. Phil
When we were in Africa there was a bird that in the morning sounded like it was saying “Work Harder” “Work Harder” and in the evening sounded like it was saying “Drink Lager” “Drink Lager”. At least that is what our guide told us.
Does anyone know the name of that bird?
This was really great KUDOS Frank Sokol
fun game! i had a really hard time knowing the difference between the red-eyed vireo and the warbling vireo (have only ever seen red-eyed once, and not a good look).
i’m wondering if your bushtit might actually be a juv. american goldfinch?
such wonderful photos, and it’s so great that you see all those birds right at trilogy!!
thanks for the fun game!
