Chronicles of an Ontario Birder: What's this bird wednesday

What's this bird wednesday

I've been trying to think of more content to put up on the blog over the summer and thought I'd give "What's this bird Wednesday" a try. I have an abundance of bird photos from this spring, so I was thinking of posting a few every Wednesday for a weekly bird quiz.

Anyone interested? Maybe? Kinda?

Anyway just post your guesses in the comments, I'll announce answers next week.

I've added 6 photos below, all taken in Bruce/Huron this past May. Birds in flight are my favourite things to photograph, so they'll likely dominant my quizzes. Sorry😉.
