Below are some photos I received in an email recently from my friend Stan Rocklin, who requested that I post them.  The photos are of a mystery bird he asked me to help him identify, which I gladly agreed to. If you know what kind of bird this is, please post in the comments and send an email Stan’s way.  Scroll down for the pictures…

Thank you!

If you are interested in bird watching and general bird information you will enjoy this link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology website.

You can listen to a recording of each bird’s call and view all of its specific information, with a pleasing style and design to the site.

Their search box has a very nice auto-complete so you do not have to know the exact name of the bird you are looking for.  Just start typing and complete names will appear below the box.  Click the link below to visit the site.
