Ann, you are such an amazing researcher! I didn't know you could Google using an image! Can you please explain how to do that?



Sure thing Joanna! Sometimes I forget about that exceptionally nifty tool! OK, here we go:
See the second choice here? That's the one I click on OR you can bookmark the page when we get there.
https://www.google.com/search?...
So now I click & get this:
https://images.google.com/?gws...
I'm going to do a screenshot of that also so you can see it:

See the little camera symbol there? Click on it. You get this:

You can see that you have the option of pasting an image URL OR of uploading an image. I almost always prefer uploading an image so I'm going to click on that option & you see this:

Now I click on "choose file"
Earlier I had done a screen shot of Cece's bird. I did that b/c I wanted to cut as much out of the photo as I could to leave only the bird itself. The reason for that is that, in this case, we are looking to ID the bird not the entire photo, IOW, not find a copy of the entire photo on the internet. This is the screenshot I had taken:

From there you just choose the photo like you do when you want to upload a photo to anywhere.
This is what Google image gave me:

From there I did searches for "green tanager" in Brazil.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
