Birds in NY

[Gaucho25]

Hi everyone. Hope you guys are keeping cool. Went camping last week in Chenango Valley State Park and Clarence Fahnestock State Park and was lucky to see some amazing birds. I need help with some doubts I have. I think the brown streaked one is a juvenile cowbird but I didn't see a lot of cowbirds around. I mostly saw juncos nearby where this little one was.

Then  - I have two flycatchers from a distance that I think are both Great Crested Flycatchers. However, one had a longer tail.

Then, I think the darker flycatcher is an Eastern Phoebe, however, it didn't do the tail wag. Could it be a least flycatcher? That's my other guess.

Also I think this is a sharp skinned hawk. It's a terrible photo and the only one I managed to take. The hawks in NYC let me get closer.

And wood thrush?

Thanks everyone!

1. Juvenile Dark-eyed Junco

2-3. Great Crested Flycatcher

4. Eastern Phoebe (brown upperparts, no eyering or wingbars)

5. Either a Broad-winged or a Red-shouldered.  Leaning Broad-winged due to the darker brown upperparts and minimal streaking in the center of the breast.

6. Wood Thrush

I think the first bird is a juvenile Eastern bluebird.

Agree with your other ID's but not sure about the accipiter.

Edit: Junco makes sense for the first bird.  I just have never seen a juvenile.

Cool! I have never seen a juvenile junco before. And I'll compare the hawk to your suggestions.

Thank you.

I agree with this.

Is that "Sharp-skinned Hawk" or "Shark-shinned Hawk?"
