Where were you -and what's it look like??? keep in mind it is migration time - you can see lots of things out there this time of year - especially coastal! Ayuh.
.... So - what was the bird?
enature.com
http://www.enature.com is a good online field guide I’ve used before. You can search by color, habitat, geographical area, size, etc. It isn’t just for birds, either. There are field guides for snakes, spiders, trees, wildflowers, mammals, fish, etc.
Hi rickster …
check out the Bird Forum database. Lots of pictures if ya know what (or have an idea what) ya saw. http://birdforum.net/
It’s a Brit thing.
