Do you have photos in your photostream of birds with unknown IDs? If so, this is the place to post them.
No doubt, one of the many experts at Birds Photos will be able to IDentify the species for you.
Note: For help on pasting a picture into this thread, see the Topic "How to paste a photo into the discussion threads."
• Please provide information about the location, time of year, etc. in either the post or on the photograph's description.
• If the member who kindly IDentified the species for you left only one of the names, you may search with that name under Wikipedia to find the other name.
Ex.: Someone IDentifies a bird as an American Robin, the common name. Go to wikipedia.org and search for "American Robin". Up front the entry should give the binomial name, Turdus migratorius.

Saw this hawk at Safety Harbor in Tampa Bay, FL. Seen lots of Red Shouldered Hawks in my area, but none like this. Using Photo ID in the Merlin app led me to think it might be a Broad-Winged Hawk, but still not sure. Any ideas?

Wood Duck Hen and Chicks. Wood Duck Drake is very colorful in breeding season, less so in eclipse, but still with a colorful beak. Juveniles resemble females.

I need some help identifying this bird. I took this photo yesterday, August 26, 2025 at Quivira National Wildlife Refuge in central, Kanasas. Thanks!
Look through these flycatchers / kingbirds / phoebes / wood-pewees — probably one of those.

I agree. The location is right and the white tail tip is indicative.
