My guesses are as follows:

1) American Redstart
2) Baltimore Oriole
3) Eastern Towhee
4) Rose-breasted Grosbeak
5) ???? Flycatcher? Sorry the pic's not too good.

Please ID the ones you can, I know some of the pics aren't too good!:C

Thanks ||

And I would also like to confirm these as Yellow Warblers.

Thanks

You are correct on all accounts. The fifth photo in the first post could be a Warbling Vireo... it looks a bit dull for an Empidonax flycatcher.

 

[Daddylion]

Thanks! That's three lifers (ex the vireo thing... whatever it turns out to be.)

How about Bluegray Gnatcatcher for number 5? I agree on the others though.

Hi daddylion,

Warbling Vireo looks like a good match for the fifth photo. Coloration and structure are wrong for Blue-gray Gnatcatcher (body is too bulky and tail too short).

The bird appears to be singing by the way. You might want to listen to Warbling Vireo recordings, it is quite a distinctive song.

Best,
Jim

Thank you DDolan and Jim! Warbling Veiro it is.

Warbling were the commonest Vireo at Point Pelee in May 2007 and you're presumably not a million miles away from there so appears likely
