I wonder if Sedge Wren can be eliminated in #2 and Bewick's Wren in #1. I do think that #3 is Marsh.

Thanks!
In Peterson, Sedge Wren is about one state-width out of range. For number 1, hoping Bewick's is the main reason for asking, but sadly, this is the best photo.

1 looks like marsh wren, with those brown rufous flanks,
2. having trouble with this one, but I don't see an eye line and the tail looks too short for marsh wren. the habitat makes you jump to marsh wren but from what can be seen it says otherwise to me. not sure if that's the photo or the truth, if the latter I would guess between house wren and pacific wren.

It's a house wren
Showing once again that the even poor photos may be more helpful for identification; I agree that this is a House Wren.
