Hi Cheryl,
If you don’t get any other offers, I’d be willing to work on it. A photo (or photos) would be essential. Also helpful would be if you could take a ruler and measure it beak to end of tail, and pass along how many inches it measures. It’s often hard to tell how long a bird is just from a photo.

It is intact so I don’t think it has been dead a long time.At first I thought a female oriole of some type but no wing bars at all and a large beak compared to orioles. Solid olive yellow on back and wings. Much brighter yellow throat and belly and underside with a little bit of orange yellow at beginning of tail underside. Top beak dark and bottom beak pale. What in the world is it? Summer tanager female maybe?I can send pics to someone willing to ID.Thanks much,Cheryl
