Where the head of this bird?










Hello Everyone, I need some help to identify this bird for me. For the last 2 nights, I found this bird sitting at the same spot right above our main door entrance. I assumed this bird probably gone somewhere during the day, and come back to this spot for resting at night. Also, I'm not sure why this bird wouldn't fly away with all the noises from slamming the door. Maybe it's a dead bird!

  1. Q it's not going to be so easy to identify this bird without a picture of it's head... Maybe I can make a match with it's tail or wing plumage. Let you know what I find.

  2. Ok this is likely a small Dove of some sort perhaps an Inca Dove. An Owl would be facing out looking to see what's going on.
    That's my best guess without being able to see it's head.

  3. My guess is that it's a cold bird! LOL With the feathers all fluffed up and it's head hiddden it's probably trying to get out of the wind and your porch makes a good place.

  4. Tough I.D. to make. If it was blue in color I would say Blue Jay. Next best guess is a small Hawk because of markings on tail feathers. The only for sure I.D. is Cold Bird.

    Speaking of cold birds, it was 22F on my outside thermometer, of which I read from inside my warm house! LOL
