Help identify birds shot while practicing with Tamron 150-600

We are currently in Yuma, Arizona. Yesterday I went for a walk in a wash along a golf course to see if I could find some birds to practice shooting. I hand held and used the manual focus. I do have a tripod/monopod but opted to go hand held. Any and all input appreciated. I have No idea what these birds are and spent quite a bit of time online trying to find out. Help.....
This one was chirping away. Identified as mockingbird.

Any ideas? eastern Towhee? Orchard Oriole?

The reddish color caught my eye. House finch?

Thank you so much. Now I can name my photographs instead of calling them Unknown Bird 1, 2, 3 etc. I plan on getting out again as I also saw some quail and roadrunners but they were too quick for me.

Number 4 looks like a Verdin. My guess. Happy New Year.
