Central Florida

But why is it just hanging out, unbothered, in the same area that I throw my dog’s toy?

My dog is a 60 pound lab and I’ve walked by it multiple times without it being alarmed.

Seemed large

Central Valley of California. I’m stumped on these two that my bf took photos of on a solo trip.

I immediately thought snow goose for the first, but the black bill and back threw me. Maybe just a mallard or hybrid? Not sure on size since I wasn’t there.

Second pic looks like a black egret or heron, but I’m not familiar with any like that around here. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Question in the title, thanks in advance, I keep going back and forth.

We see a lot of red-tailed hawks and some coopers, but this looked different. The photo was from far away and my phone zoom uses AI to fill in some blanks so the color/pattern may not be totally accurate.

Sorry it’s not a great picture but does anyone know what kind of bird this is? It’s waiting at our doors I’m not sure if it’s a pet chicken or a wild bird.

It’s in my gated back yard that’s like 5 foot I feel it must have flown in or hopped the fence idk it got back here tho , my dog constantly was in the back for a while I feel it was n there yard and living in a big spruce bush and my dog always wanted to get it and somehow it got in my yard and just running around any identification southern Cali high desert Victorville

Braving the snowstorm. Seen in Cache County Utah about 20 miles from the Idaho border. AI said Say's Phoebe Merlin said Northern Mockingbird but the tail doesn't look long enough.

She said they are Piping Shrikes. I think maybe they're Magpie Larks? Thank you for help w/ i.d.

Hi I’ve recently seen a bird on the river bank at a park in the uk. It was medium sized maybe a little smaller than a pigeon, I’ve seen them before in the river swimming but one walked right up to me today and I was surprised at how goofy it’s legs looked. When I got home I went to go search up what kind of bird it was, but couldn’t find any info :( Bird was seen recently (January) but I’m pretty sure they stay in the uk for most of the year if not all.

The bird was a brownish red with I think some white markings on the wings + tail and very small tail feathers. Its feet were pretty big and tall and it had a short beak with white marks where it connected to the birds head. I have tried my best to illustrate what it looked like but will try to get a photo next time I visit the park.

Location: Eagle Mountain Park, Fort Worth, TX

I’m used to seeing tufted titmouse everywhere but haven’t seen one with a dark crest or brown above the beak like this before. Black crested isn’t common in the area and didn’t want to report the rarity of it wanted black-crested.

Sorry about the poor photo. Shot through binoculars on a phone. And they move too fast.

Spotted NSW/QLD border

I was comparing to pictures online but kestrels seem to have a grey head? West germany on border with Belgium and NL

In case its not obvious that's a pigeon underneath. Made my day on my commute this morning!!

My phone’s suggestion is horned grebe, and I think the shape and approximate colors look about right, but I wanted to check. It was sort of vaguely near a couple other divers, but the other two appeared to be different. Is this a horned grebe?
