I was wondering whether any one had been able to look at Tim's Cardinal yet? I finally gotten the link working to the pictures. If you raelly does'nt want to use a yahoo site, I can send the pics to you personally. I am radically curious about this bird, perhaps as much as Tim himself, and hope ohters can help with the id or an explanation.

In the first place well, I gotten my two feeders (a tray & a hopper) and a bath, and sit them out

Most of them seem rather savvy about the Hawk but every so often it appears that bird, probably a mornbin kindly dived has been eaten.

I have three feedsers whi

I recently saw a wild bird in the middle of the street and it appeared injured. One wing was extended and one leg crouched to it's stomach. The other leg appeared to still hold the bird up. I watched a SUV truck drive over it and miss the bird by inches with it's wheel. I drove away, then decided to come back in 5 minutes after contacting an apparent rescue group at the Great Swamp in Millington,

I just found this swift-like bird within the hour -- at least, I am kind of hoping that's the case and that it wasn't downed due to something like West
Nile Virus:

Note the mark in the middle of its back -- it appears to have been attacked by another bird. I found it in the middle of the neighbor's driveway, and when I picked it up it didn't struggle,

Hi, I took 6 pictures of a bird that was on my mom's back porch railing and I was hoping that some one here could tell me what kind of bird it is. These where taken in Northern Ohio.

Here are the links to the pictures:
