(the first shot)
It came for about several days, but then was never seen again.

(second)
I refer to it as the big headed bird. Not sure what it is.

(third)
Confused Juvenile.....but of what species?

(4th)
Eventually decided it didn't like the area and left.

First one looks like a female rose breasted grosbeak, third looks like a pine siskin.

2 is also an Eastern Phoebe. Agree on the other IDs.

Photo 2 is odd. It initially struck me as a juvenile Eastern Phoebe, but it doesn't match my Sibley's which shows a yellowish belly and less dark marking on the belly. I'm not sure if that's an eye ring, but the photo does show a black bill and weak wingbars, indicative of an Eastern Phoebe.

Posted the same time as Jim Moore. His posting gives me confidence that 2 is also an Eastern Phoebe.
