First of all, I think this is some kind of warbler, but really not sure - any ideas?

And then a few others...a white-throated sparrow, rear view mallard, a coopers hawk from afar, and a cormorant...

    Hello,

    #2 is sharp with a wonderful bokeh and gentle light. Wonderful details too. Good capture.

    I've never seen a composition like #3 before. Really like it. Only thought i that the crop seems a little tight - I'd like a little more room above the head and maybe on each side of the wings.

    Nice variety of birds. You did a good job getting the little ones, they are still too fast for me. I was trying to get a shot like your mallard this weekend but my timing was off and it didn't work out. I like the blur in the wings. What lens were you using and would you mind posting the Exif on the Mallard shot? Thanks

    Oh, and maybe that first one is a Tennessee Warbler. Just a guess though.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Great captures! I think the first one is a Ruby-crowned Kinglet.
