Went hiking today and caught these. Except for the last two of house finch and the hummingbird nesting, I have no clue as to what the rest are (some sort of sparrow?):

Let me give this a shot. Keep in mind, I'm only just learning about birds.
First three look like a female Spotted Towhee.

The next one looks like a bird I first saw today - a Western Wood-Pewee
See: https://photography-on-the.net …php?p=3309106#p​ost3309106

Next is a House Finch

I have no idea about the last one, that long beak should be a clue though. Looks like a hummingbird of some kind.

Nice shots.

I THINK you got them ALL correct, as I just googled by the name that you provided. They all seem to match up. Hey, you're getting pretty good at these things! :D

Thanks Sys, but if I were you I wouldn't put money on my guesses. :) I do tend to be a bit obsessive once I start something, I wanna know all about it. I very usnsure about that PeWee bird, like I said I saw/photographed my first one today. :)

Keep up the great photos!
