What South Georgia Bird Pray Tell?
Jul 21, 2020 17:41:12 #
Hello. I live in south Georgia, USA and love taking pictures of my backyard birds. I've only been at it a 2-3 months, but I've gotten some nice shots for a beginner. My only backyard birds book for Georgia doesn't show these birds anywhere. Can anyone help identify these mystery birds? Thanks UHHers.

Looks like a European Starling.

Hi fellow Georgian, I also see and photograph some birds that seem missing from the hard copy field guides. Suggest you take an enlarged copy of the bird only and paste it into ebird (cornell university) app that will help ldentify your suspect bird. Works most of the time. And, a good resource for your computer or cell phone.

Thanks brother,
I never knew there was such a source. Have similar app for plants, but I’m not good with it. Will check it out.
The South’s gonna do it again. Greer
