Lol... just like I said on the other site... young Bald Eagle.
-
Both are definitely Accipiters. The first is a definite Cooper's, and I think the second I also.
-
Agree with House Finches here.

FWIW...I see a the hawk as a definite Red-shouldered. Others already mentioned the usual field marks used.
-
Yeah that's a Black-capped Vireo... a local hill country breeder. Great bird to get.

First is a Song and second pic shows a Chipping.

This is a young Red-shouldered Hawk. The tail pattern fits, as well as the wing crescents in the flight shot as well.

On a recent business trip to Miami, picked up a 2 misses from last time as well as 2 rarities. However no pics as I did not bring the camera.
622-625: Thick-billed Vireo, Western Spindalis, White-winged Parakeet, and Spot-breasted Oriole.

All ducks are Redheads... the brownish headed ones are females.

Immature Saffron Finch

@jcarscadden... your pics in the first post are an immature bird which is why they are rufous colored. Your other pic is of an adult.

I agree with 1-4 (common for #4) and #7.
#s 8 and 9 are Linnets.
I think #s 6 and 10 are Chiffchaffs.
#5 I am unsure of... that all black bill should eliminate Chiffchaff though.

So back to the pics... the first one is a Hermit Thrush and the second one is a much larger bodied bird, with my best IDs based on a very poor pic(no offense intended) being Red-shouldered Hawk or Barred Owl. They are definitely not the same bird in the 2 pics.

Agree with female Redhead here. As was stated above that white mark, the facial marking is fine for female Redhead.... Remembering that there can be variation between individual birds.
@ egosnell2002... In my experience, Redheads usually mix in with Scaup, but I have seen plenty of times where all 3 species (Redheads, Ring-neckeds and Scaup) are on the same small body of water.
@ Millipede...as with many species, the more you see this species(even females), it will become easier to differentiate them. I always recommend using a field guide with true pics as well as one with drawings, as both have pros and cons, but used together can often give a clearer understanding of field marks, plumages, etc.
