Struggling with Sparrows + Hummer TX (1 Viewer)

The Sparrows are probably Cassins but hoping for something else.

Geography (Falcon Dam), behaviour and Bill might suggest Black chinned for the Hummer?

BcHummer or RtHummer? I think we are still sufficiently in migration period that you cannot exclude either.

True, but ruby throated usually doesn't come that far west. This one didn't behave as the other migrating hummers Ive seen over the past week.
 
pretty sure 2 & 3 are Cassin's Sparrow but I've never seen that species. Not sure about #1, could also be Cassin's but less sure on that one than 2&3.
