    Juveniles tend to be darker than the adults. http://www.backyardwilderness.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/2011_06_21-120W.jpg http://www.nejohnston.org/birds/2013/09/Images/IMG_3643.jpg
  2. The Bird Nuts
    Yes, a young Song Sparrow.
  3. The Bird Nuts
    Agree with young Gray Catbird.
  4. The Bird Nuts
    Carolina Wren. It would be very unusual to see a Bewick's in New Jersey, especially nesting.
  5. The Bird Nuts
    You are correct.
  6. The Bird Nuts
    Northern Flickers (yellow-shafted variety).
  7. The Bird Nuts
    Juvenile Brown-headed Cowbird.
  8. The Bird Nuts
    Looks like a male House Finch.
  9. The Bird Nuts
    I agree.
  10. The Bird Nuts
    Bill shape and size, head and body shape, and color are all wrong for a flycatcher. I'm thinking this is an Indigo Bunting.

    I am pretty confident. The 4th photo (of the face) especially looks like a Pine Warbler. Yellow-throated Vireos not only have larger bills, they have larger eyes and a more contrasting face pattern. Your bird also appears to have orange feet which rules out vireos (which have blue feet).
  12. The Bird Nuts
    Looks like a Pine Warbler to me.

    I can't really say how many we see on average. We see a lot more raptors during the spring, fall, and winter months. In the summer we maybe see one raptor (mainly Red-tailed, Broad-winged, or Cooper's) every other day.
  14. The Bird Nuts
    Pretty sure it's a juvenile (notice the fleshy gape), and I agree with Baltimore.

    #2 is a Lincoln's Sparrow (gray base color on face, buffy malar, thin streaking on buffy breast and flanks, raised crest). I'll let others ID the first since I have no experience with Brewer's.
  16. The Bird Nuts
    It's a rather fluffy House Finch.
  17. The Bird Nuts
    The second is the call of a Great Crested Flycatcher. I'm not sure what the first one is.
  18. The Bird Nuts
    (Because of the brownish plumage, large, light-colored bills, and large rear ends) ?
  19. The Bird Nuts
    I think @scall0way is right - one Canada, one domestic Swan Goose (with some domestic Graylag in it), and three domestic Swan/Graylag X Canada Geese hybrids.
  20. The Bird Nuts
    The OP's bird is definitely a Chipping Sparrow. American Tree Sparrows have yellow lower mandibles, rufous eyelines, and buffy flanks (and it would be very unusual to see one in the lower 48 in the summer).
  21. The Bird Nuts
    It's a Chipping Sparrow.
  22. The Bird Nuts
    Yellow Warbler.
  23. The Bird Nuts
    Maybe it is a brown domestic type Rock Pigeon (like this one: https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/b/brown-pigeon-walking-dried-grass-57873285.jpg)?
  24. The Bird Nuts
    Looks like a Traill's to me. (And the plant is pickerelweed)
  25. The Bird Nuts
    I think it's a Summer Tanager. The wings don't seem dark enough and the bill looks too large for a Scarlet.
