Unknown nest with damaged cowbird egg. The nest is about 6 or 7 feet in an Oak tree.
Found this fallen nest under a Pine tree. We had some bad storms so it probably blew down then. It’s made out of pine needles and too small to be a mockingbird nest. Any ideas?
We saw this bird at Galveston Bay, then we saw around 50 at a park. Any idea what they are? They are a bit smaller than a curlew and make mewing sounds.
Spotted this eggshell when we were birding, any idea what bird made it?
Birding at Edith Moore in Houston, lots of birds including a banded Carolina Wren and a banded Downy Woodpecker. We also came across this nest.
This strange yellow-rumped warbler came to eat peanut butter this morning. It was silver, it had the normal yellow-rumped warbler markings, but no yellow rump! Is this an Audubon’s subspecies, a Mytrle x Audubon’s hybrid, or just a normal myrtle yellow rump? Any ideas?

Is this a House Sparrow? It looks different than the ones that normally visit. It looks like a normal sparrow but it’s mostly gray.
Nest needs ID! Bird’s nest in an Oak tree. The nest is pretty small. (Only about 8” from end to end but not sure because it is high up.) Its made of sticks and Oak leaves. Would appreciate any ID ideas.

My grandmother saw this bird at a McDonalds in Central Kentucky. She says it was about the size of a crow and looked similar to a chicken. I have never seen anything like it before. Have any of you? Please let me know if you know what it is. Thanks!
