On 10/29/10 these 2 birds arrived at my feeder outside my office in New Bern, NC. They were there midday today, 10/30, as well. The distinquishing feature is the light orange colored band around their necks. However, their colors are quite different, leading me to think this is a male & female - but I'm new at this. One is a predominantly gray while the other has very detailed wing markings. I have been unable to find any help on the web identifying them. Hopefully my photos will be clear enough for you to help me.
Thanks,
