Field Notes

Description:

They were eating my rice and gawked at me.
The one in the sky is all black.
The black bird on eating my rice on the fence thing was completely all black.
The brownish bird looks like a house finch.
The one on the ground have a yellow beak.

Habitat:

Ratchet backyard

Notes:

I wasted a batch of rice for this project... Also, I never knew there were so many varieties of birds. Before, I just look at a bird and say "oh look. A bird."

Well it sounds like you learned something about birds so the rice was not a complete waste.
Oh yes and welcome to Project Noah. (I am sure the birds don't think the rice was wasted :)
Hi Thao Ngo. A spotting should be one single species. You can make many different ones from these photos. Please split them up. Thank you.
There are several different species here the first one looks like a crow (I don't know which species) The second one is a european starling. The third one looks like a common grackle but there seems to also be a carolina chickadee behind him. The forth photo looks like a female house sparrow but I'm not 100% on it all.
