The last time I took a guess on a photo I guessed a Ruby-crowned Kinglet when it was actually a Hutton's Vireo which I had actually never even heard of.My first thought was grouse bt it doesn't seem to have much of a tail and it has a big Schnoz-So I'll go with Sora even though I've never seen one.

No correct answers yet, but one is close. I'll give you a clue... this bird seems to be missing something.

Missing the tail?

Can I change to a hen pheasant missing a tail?
