Welcome everyone to the birdQUIZ blog that will help you with your bird identification skills. Feel free to use any kind of reference you have available for your identification (Sibley’s Field Guide is recommended)!! Good Luck Everyone!
If you need spoilers click on the comments but I strongly suggest that you try to identify the bird first before moving down to see what answers have been given already. The person who commented could be wrong!! Most or all of these birds have been identified in the hand already and we know the answer (unless we say we don't know the answer).

Is that a immature summer tanager?

I spotted this picture and thought they looked very similar.

Thank you, people won’t be able to visit my new blog for a while.

Brooks – This bird is not an Immature Summer Tanager, there is a similarity in the yellow on the breast and the sides but there isn’t enough of the yellow present to make it a Immature Summer Tanager, Good guess though!

Is the bird from North America?

Okay, it has been a month. It is a molting Scarlet Tanager.
