Just for Fun Avian ID Quiz #8
By Jory • November 26, 2008 • 5 commentsAs always, the “Just for Fun Avian ID Quiz” is brought to you by Jory Langner, our esteemed Avian Quizmaster. This week’s quiz is short and sweet though more clues will be added if it turns out no one can figure it out…we 10,000 Birds bloggers are confident that our readership can “get it in one.”
There is only one clue today. It is a possibility that the quiz can be solved using this one clue. If no correct answers are posted, additional clues will be provided until someone figures it out.

Good luck! And stay tuned for additional clues (if they’re needed) and the answer.

I’ll jump off from Patrick’s start and guess Mountain Quail.
nope … neither Wild Turkey nor Roseate Spoonbill.
I think Jory needs his own 10000 Birds account.
I was going to guess Wild Turkey, but since that’s not right, I’ll guess that ! is an American Bittern standing very still.
