Oh duh - I somehow thught these were Oregon and not Belize!! My mistake. I will need to correct and make these two spottings, but have to find the pics so I can delete and reupload.
And sweet - I think that makes the gnatcatcher a a first for me - even belatedly.
Thank you!!
Yes I'm sure, bushtit don't have an eye ring. I don't believe bushtit are found in Belize anyways. And American redstarts are everywhere in Belize in the winter.
and you think gnatcatcher rather than our more common bushtit?
This is another one where I need to check the originals - I was in my mom's daylight basement. I don't remember two different birds in the rose bush!
If it is a redstart, I wish I'd known back then. That's a pretty exciting bird for this coast
You have two very different birds here. The first photo is a gnatcatcher, I bet blue-gray gnatcatcher, http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/blue-...
Your second bird is an immature American redstart, http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/ameri...
