What's this bird?
Identifying a bird can be sometimes quite complicated if the description is incomplete or a picture is not clear because many birds look similar.
We suggest that you subscribe to the Sacramento Birds Group Email where local birding experts can help with identification. Send a blank email to sacramento_birds-subscribe@yahoogroups.com . After you get a confirmation of your subscription, you may post your questions and photos to the Group at sacramento_birds@yahoogroups.com
You can also use whatbird.com or this link or any of the Birding Links on the links page for help in identifing birds.
