A new bird at our feeder...I've not seen one like it before and would like to ask Bev @prttblues if she could identify it for me. she is knows a lot about the different bird species. what looks so different to me is the long beak and the tail feathers.
Could be a female Red-wing black bird... pulling out the bird book now...nope- looks like it's a Veery! Check out other pictures on line and see if they match what you saw. The second shot is what made me think it might be the Red-Winged female, but they are much more heavily streaked than that. The first shot looked very similar to my bird book shot of the Veery. I'm no expert, but that's my educated guess.
