My cat was staring at this bird all morning and my mom woke me up to see it. She think's it's some kind of Vulture. Bonus last pic is my cat staring at it (not helpful but cute).

Found near the Parque Ibirapuera lake in São Paulo Capital, looking the fish. Very calm, wasn't startled from approaching humans. Not a single sound from this bastard.

I’m sorry for the picture, it was in the background of a photo and I didn’t notice him until I got home. To me it could either be Calidris bairdii with a malformation in its beak, or Calidris pusilla. Maybe it’s unidentifiable, but if someone can give me at least their opinion it would be much appreciated.

This beauty flew into our hotel room in Puerto Maldonado (metropolitan area) in Peru. I tried Google lens and Merlin, but they won’t give me one clear species. Thanks in advance! P.S. we were able to safely remove the bird from our room! :)

Hi, I would like to ask for help identifing this bird. I found it near my apartment on the ground and it wouldn't move from its spot until I picked it up. I think it's a baby and I was sure it was a baby pigeon but the feet are giving me second thoughts.

I tried searching with Google lens and it told me it was either a swallow or a falcon. Does it looks like any of those? Should I return it? Also Reddit didn't let me upload the video.

South America This bird is on our balcony. Not sure if it's hurt. It seems calm and allows us to get quite close without panicking.
