  1. The Bird Nuts
    Young Northern Mockingbird.
  2. The Bird Nuts
    Why not a N. Rough-winged? It doesn't have a well-defined light throat which I would expect to see on a Tree Swallow at any age.
  3. The Bird Nuts
    I think all are Eastern Wood-Pewees.
  4. The Bird Nuts
    Western Kingbird.
  5. The Bird Nuts
    Mississippi Kite?
  6. The Bird Nuts
    Juvenile Pied-billed Grebes have striped heads.
  7. The Bird Nuts
    Juvenile Common Gallinule, I'd say.
  8. The Bird Nuts
    Yes, Orchard Oriole!
  9. The Bird Nuts
    More likely a female Boat-tailed since it was a rust/tan color. https://farm9.static.flickr.com/8221/8420676607_baa7912e38_b.jpg

    How about leucistic grackle (either a Common or Boat-tailed)? Here is a photo of a leucistic Boat-tailed: https://thumbs.dreamstime.com/b/leucistic-boat-tailed-grackle-quiscalus-major-white-head-green-background-55479517.jpg
  11. The Bird Nuts
    Osprey is my guess.
  12. The Bird Nuts
    Yeah, plus the brown color.
  13. The Bird Nuts
    Have you looked at photos of Green Herons (young and adult) on Google or Macaulay Library? They can hold themselves in all sorts of positions and some have bright yellow legs. Your description of plumage still fits Green Heron well.
  14. The Bird Nuts
    Western Wood-Pewee (no eyering, faint wingbars, long primaries, dark flanks, smudgy undertail coverts).
  15. The Bird Nuts
    It is possible to tell (females behave differently during nesting season, etc.), but you have to observe them very closely.
  16. The Bird Nuts
    The bird on the left is a Tufted Titmouse and the bird on the right is a Black-capped Chickadee.
  17. The Bird Nuts
    Sounds like a Green Heron. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_heron#/media/File:Butorides_virescens2.jpg
  18. The Bird Nuts
    Agreed.
  19. The Bird Nuts
    Say's Phoebes, I'd say.
  20. The Bird Nuts
    Eastern Phoebe (brown color above, completely black beak, no eyering). It appears to be a juvenile due to the visible gape flange and the cinnamon wingbars.
  21. The Bird Nuts
    Male House Finch.
  22. The Bird Nuts
    Cooper's Hawk with the light nape and blocky, flat-topped head (and gray cheeks which makes it a male).
  23. The Bird Nuts
    I'm thinking this is a fledgling Red-winged Blackbird that hasn't grown feathers on its face yet. Like this: https://www.flickr.com/photos/feltonphoto/7324816742
  24. The Bird Nuts
    Mallard drake.
  25. The Bird Nuts
    It is a White-breasted Nuthatch.
