In #99 your picture is of a Japanese Grosbeak. The Chinese Grosbeak has a black hood that covers all the head and a black tipped bill. If you get a good enough look, the Chinese Grosbeak also has a black "grin line".
"You must not know too much, or be too precise or scientific about birds and trees and flowers and water-craft; a certain free margin, and even vagueness—perhaps ignorance, credulity—helps your enjoyment of these things, and of the sentiment of feather’d, wooded, river, or marine Nature generally." ~Walt Whitman
