Goldfinch can be tricky unless you see them often enough to really lock them into your memory.<br />Next time I do a quiz, maybe I'll do big wading birds like herons and egrets.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17345056860110319818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31357943.post-1986690374141134582009-08-20T21:54:30.929-05:002009-08-20T21:54:30.929-05:00I'm the opposite Kyle.

Herons, Cranes & Egrets make my head spin.<br /><br />I'll admit that the main reason I ID'd Jeff's were because I'vre seen them in his previous blog entries ;)plus I've got the same species (minus the woodpeckers) at my feeders.T Shaughnessyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09541572048989518103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31357943.post-75988469649913862212009-08-20T16:43:43.168-05:002009-08-20T16:43:43.168-05:00Great quiz, Jeff!

I'm ashamed to say that I missed BOTH of the House Finches (I never see them in person for some reason, and never remember what they are in pictures until I see them labeled and then have a "I should've known that!" moment.), as well as the non-breeding Goldfinch.<br /><br />Give me woodpeckers, herons and egrets and I do okay. Finches are still the bane of my identifying abilities!Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13014655699830796979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31357943.post-79957195749594566352009-08-20T12:45:14.781-05:002009-08-20T12:45:14.781-05:00I'll look to see if I have enough campus bird ...I'll look to see if I have enough campus bird photos.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17345056860110319818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31357943.post-888441150200423012009-08-20T11:36:42.161-05:002009-08-20T11:36:42.161-05:00Cool quiz Jeff.

I should have known though if I'd have given it more thought.<br /><br />Next time maybe do one with shots from the campus.T Shaughnessyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09541572048989518103noreply@blogger.com
