Hi again

A few from Texas:

1) Kingbird(?) near Mexican border
2) Lesser Nighthawk (also near Mexican border)
3) Seaside Sparrow? (South Texas)
4) Sparrow somewhere in South Texas!

Many thanks again!
Alan

I can confirm the Seaside Sparrow, all others are tough but I think someone else will ID them correctly.

1. Myiarchus Sp.
2. Nighthawk Sp.
3. Seaside Sparrow
4. Cassin's Sparrow(?)

2. Common Nighthawk? (Leaning towards Common not Lesser as the pale bar on the primaries seems located below the tertials).
3. Seaside
4. Another Seaside? (Absent a distinct yellow supraloral, look at the size of the bill and overall coloring. Don't know what else it could be.)

I think #4 is an Olive Sparrow.
