CLOSED: Need ID Help

Provincetown, MA

I am on Cape Cod. This looks like a Starling, but I have never seen one with a wing-band of white and yellow like this - and the bill seems shorter than a typical Starling. Can you help?

It's a male Red Winged Blackbird just molting into his first breeding plumage

Wow, thank you! Since the wing-band looked more white than yellow, I had no clue. But I believe you are totally right!

Yep, agree with immature male Red-winged Blackbird
