Sounds like a Red-tailed Hawk.

Upon closer inspection, that's a Ring-necked Duck on the right.

Falcon of some sort. Not sure if Kestrel or Merlin.
Agreed, it's giving me kestrel vibes but it's hard to be sure.

I also hear a Catbird and some blackbirds.

I think that's another Yellow-crowned Tyrannulet.

The Winter Finch Forecast is out! Fingers crossed I'll actually see some finches this winter.

Went out at sunrise to check for migrants. Ended up with more species than expected and several first of season and year, as well as plenty of mosquito bites.

I believe this is a Yellow-crowned Tyrannulet.

What reference did you use?
I saw that both of them looked the same while side by side, and this thread shows what they look like as juveniles:

Glad to see another thought as now that I'm at the big screen can't make it fit any of the wrens.
On the other hand...
Could you provide a reference for Palm Warbler? I have never seen one so going completely off book knowledge, but a quick look at Sibley's shows them being fairly yellow, with no sign of a rufous wing.
Thanks!
This bird looks rather similar if that's what you meant by a reference. https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/381676501

Yeah, looks like an adult with a juvenile Common Tody-Flycatcher.

Second photo, bird on the far right. Solid dark head, no white or apparent crest; solid white breast and sides, no apparent stripes or rust; dark back / wings.
Sorry, Snipping Tool isn't working properly this morning.
Goldeneye, probably.

This is a pretty clear-cut Palm Warbler to me. It's kinda blurry but you can still see the facial pattern, and habitat is typical.

I have a massive backlog since I've been busy with accelerated high school, but last week I participated in my first birding competition! It was the first time the Barrens Birding Blitz was held, with teams birding across the local Albany Pine Bush Preserve. Altogether 101 species were recorded during the competition. Species had to be confirmed by at least two members of the group and teams were required to stay together- pretty standard competition rules I think.
My team came in first place with 60 species, and our names will be engraved on the Barrens Blitz trophy cup! We also saw the highest number of warbler species.
I got this trophy to take home:
I had good looks (although not great photos) of two lifers that I got there- #309 Merlin and #310 Wilson's Warbler!
I'll upload the rest of the pictures tomorrow hopefully
