Warblers and Something, Central FL, USA (1 Viewer)

Would appreciate some help with IDs from these photos. 1 and 2 are surely the same. Not sure if 3 is enough to go on but I'll bet it is for all the experts on this forum. Thanks!

Most of these photos have some issue with white balance.

#1 is a blue-grey gnatcatcher. After careful examination, #2 is the same bird, though with a bit of a yellow-green color cast (possibly just from nearby leaves)

#3 is a northern cardinal (looking oddly dull - I'm pretty sure it's a male and should be bright red, maybe the photo was underexposed and you lightened it in post-processing?)

#4 is a northern mockingbird (looking oddly orangish underneath)

Thank you for the IDs.

I was using auto white balance on a Nikon D300 and raw file conversion was done by Capture One 9, both of which normally work very well. The shadows were adjusted on the 2 gnatcatcher photos but there were no adjustments at all to the cardinal or mockingbird photos other than cropping. Interesting that two other Northern Cardinal photos at a different location about 300 feet away had normal looking color. But shooting up into a shaded tree canopy may have thrown something off on some of the photos.

I've got a couple of Northern Cardinals that are rather dull in color. It usually happens around this time of year.
