Downy or Hairy? 🪶 These lookalike woodpeckers can stump even experienced birders. Which one is this? Answer in the comments!

A Downy Woodpecker (Dryobates pubescens) perches upright on a diagonal tree branch with its head tilted upward. Its short, pointed bill, black-and-white striped face, pale underside, and white-spotted black wings stand out against a blurred green woodland background.⭕ Aperture: f/8 ⏱️ Shutter Speed: 1/400s 💡 ISO 12800 📏 Focal Length: 400mm 📅 Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2026 🕐 Time: 10:57 AM 📍 Location: 29° 46' 18.83" N, 95° 34' 11.55" W 📸 Camera: Canon EOS R50 🔍 Lens: RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM © 2026 Jason Dentler, All Rights Reserved

Well... that's Northern Harrier ruined for the most part. I had been on the lookout for these for some time, believing this to be inevitable. All northies will now have to be scrutinized to the utmost & several past birds will be under suspicion. #irishrarebirds #birds #birding #BirdID #raptors

Can I get help on an ID for this windowstrike bird ? I’m in Seattle WA but it’s probably a migrant who wouldn’t be here normally

Blog update:
My Lesser Kestrel became a Long stayer & playing ball for far better photographers than I. A swathe of nice images added here. #birds #birding #birdwatching #raptors #finland #BirdID #bordsseenin2026

hi friends, when I put this bird in the Merlin app, it says it is a western tanager? What do you think usually they see more yellow? #Birds #BirdID

I was really lucky for me to move this camera here today. I was hoping to get the cedar wax wings, but I got this bird.

Lesser Kestrel. A really enjoyable weekend finding a top bird. 😍

iNaturalist is telling me this is a razorbill. Can anyone confirm? Have always wanted to see one, would be thrilled if so. Spotted off Cromer, Norfolk.

Is this a Song Sparrow? The behavior seems different. #BirdID

I have tons of video right now. I will post them on this thread

#BirdID Looks like a crow with a gray tuft around the neck and back of the head. Attempts to ID via online searches said "maybe it's just a crow" and I haven't ruled that out, but I don't think I've seen one like that. Pacific NW.

Classic shape in level flight there - the amount of flex at the carpal created this silhouette. Here’s a montage I made from a variety of online sources as part of a (failed😭) submission I made for a bird I saw in Edinburgh a few years’ ago. A diagnostic shape IMO #birdID
