Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

I think most people here like identifying them, nobody's going out of their way. If you do become interested in identifying this bird or others, I can recommend the Merlin app. I use it to ID the birds near me. It can use sounds, photos, or a game of 20 questions along with location and time to narrow your search.

That sounds like an amazing app

It's is kind of magical. Not perfect, but I like to think my contributions might help make it even better.
