Very small. Looks a lot like Bombylius pygmaeus (Pygmy Bee Fly) but the wing pattern (blotches) is very different from Pygmy (separated spots).

Junco hyemalis × zonotrichia albicollis (Dark-eyed Junco × White-throated Sparrow). Photographed at Ashbridges Bay Park, Toronto, Ontario on 10 October 2022. A rare treat to see this interesting hybrid. I'm not sure who found this bird, but thanks!

Previously I had never seen more than two or three of this species in a given night. Note how many are on this one tree at my banana bait.

It doesn't appear that it's some kind of injury damage as much as a deformity and, I understand, from A.K.D., (Avian Keratin Disorder). It's hard to believe she, a woodpecker, has survived to adulthood with this bill.

Experts - What is going on here? This male American Kestrel sure did seem to have the hots for this female Merlin. He kept trying to get close to her and even brought her a few treats (insects?) from the grass beneath the fence. She accepted the treats but didn't seem thrilled with the attention. However, when he flew off, she followed him...

Wow -- I just noticed that a tiny ecto-parasitic snail was riding on the shell of this live Eastern Mud Snail, which was the subject of a previous observation here:
http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/6770993
The Boonea is on the right-hand side of the mud snail, about halfway along the shell from head to tail. The Boonea is white, and fairly high-spired. It is facing the same way as the mud snail is.
I see what I think is a sculpture of one incised line at the mid-whorl position on the little white shell -- there is a dark line there.
As for the species ID, I am not really certain this is Boonea bisuturalis, but that is a very common species on the NY coastline. B. bisuturalis is a notorious pest on oyster beds, as well as parasitizing other species including this mud snail species.
Oysters are starting to make a real comeback around NYC, including this part of the estuary.
Nice info here:
