Can't open the pics, could you re-attach them or something?

Birds in the vid:
1 Plain looking upperparts suggest Northern Mockingbird
2 Jamaican Woodpecker
3 White-winged Dove
4 Based on range, this should be an Olive-throated Parakeet
5 female hummingbird, probably one of the Streamertails.
6 male Black-throated Blue Warbler

There're some mixed images in there with 'chip' notes on the background but I can't see any bird...
Cheers,
Eduardo
