We saw a flock of large wild birds land in a tall tree top, they were brown on top with red brests, looked like large robins, except the beak was like a parrot. At first we thought they were hawks, but then they gatthered with more and flew south. Does anyone know what they were? We live in southern Illinois.

They are a beautiful bright yellow bird, with black under it's throat, white wings, with stripes of black running thru them. Nothing I've ever seen around here before. They look like something that could be found in a rain forest. Can anyone help to identify them??????? I have 2 regular size birds drinking from my hummingbird feeder.

I do not know what species it is, and would like it if someone could help me out. It is gray in color, with a pale yellow breast. It tail is black, with a yellow stripe on either side. It is going to be about the size of a dove when grown, and is jnow currently the size of a finch. Please help me identify it.
