annnddd.... the replies put online were correct!


1. Warbling Vireo
2. Lapland Longspur
3. American Robin
4. Chipping Sparrow
5. Northern Cardinal
6. Common Grackle
7. Unknown crow species....
8. Red-winged Blackbird
9. American Goldfinch
10. Blue-headed Vireo
11. Eastern Kingbird
12. Blue Jay (x2)
13. Blue-gray Gnatcatcher

--- You may notice, that people went with Fish Crow and American Crow for the "crow" photo... I had several photos of the bird, most of which looked better for Fish Crow than American Crow (taken this May at Pelee) - but I'm not really sure how reliable that method is for separating them (with photos) as they seem to be variable (???) - anyone want to make a case?

I've still got some more bad photos like this, so expect to see a quiz again soon! They seem to be fairly popular...
