Sign In to followYeah it's a Brandt's note the tan coloring near the base of the bill (unique with Brandt's) and the lack of any yeally/orange facial skin. I don't believe having brown coloring on the chest is a field mark but I could be wrong.
Thanks, Francisco! They are my favorite family of birds so I spend quite a bit of time studying them. More to come!
This is actually a Pine Siskin. Note the many streaks throughout the body, and yellow primaries (seen in the 3rd shot)
Dude this bird was sick! Definitely one of my favorite birds on my Maricopa List, great find, again, Josh!
Thanks Antonio! It sounds like you guys are an awesome community! I am looking forward to what I might learn in this website!

They sure do! The two best things in owls in my opinion is small size and dark eyes and Flam has both! Flam on!
