I would say that location would likely be of help for several of the others, too, at least to confirm that Alan was right.

In the first 5, it is not a Chilean Flamingo. To much black on the wings. It is a Andean Flamingo.

On the last 2, the middle Flamingo is Chilean Fl. and the other 2 are Andean Fl.

Thanks Fritz - I will have to go through the extensive Flamingo shots to sort out the two species!

Hi,
The Ground Tyrant is a Ochre-naped Ground Tyrant
The third picture of the secund post is a Buff-winged Cinclodes
And the last picture of the second post looks like a Black-hooded Sierra Finch to me.
