We discovered we have a guest who overnights on top one of our porch columns. Any guesses of what sort of bird this thing is?

Mrs. DocV says it looks like a wren.

Kinda looks like a beaver.

Chupacabra.

Probably a European starling.

Yellow-bellied Sapsucker.

Miniature Northern Spotted Owl. Shoot it before the United States Fish & Wildlife Service condemns your property and moves you into the street...

A swallow carrying a coconut.

May be an Ooooh Aaaah bird. Lays an egg twice it's body size.

Having time on my hands this morning, , I'd say it's a guineafowl:

We used to have a few on our place growing up in Clay County eons ago. Fantastic burglar alarms. Made lots of noise for no reason. Hmmmm... now that I think about it, sounds like a liberal!

Would that be an African or European swallow?

Phew! For a minute there, I thought I was the only one!

Hard to judge body size, but it could be a Night Hawk or maybe a Whip-poor-will.
