The first two are from a trip to a local park & the last two are from my back yard. The last photo I cannot identify for sure. My first guess is a immature cowbird but the color is not quite right & the all black beak isn't right. Any ID info would be appreciated.
Beautiful images. They are all terrific. I have no idea what kind of bird the last image is of, but the beak looks sort of similar to a finch.
Thank you for posting these.
Outstanding! So beautiful!

All nice, but I love the Barn Swallow. Could the last one be a female cowbird or is it too small?
Female cowbird is possible. Coloration is not quit right but close.

Very detailed set! Thanx for sharing!
All good but the Barn Swallow is outstanding. We used to have them when I was young but they seem to be gone. The thick, heavy beak of the last one would seem to put it in the Finch family, possibly a grosbeak, but not a female blue GB. Just visited Cornell Lab and viewed pics of female BHC. That would be my bet.
Great set, I think the last one is a Brown-headed Cowbird

Not sure but looks like a female cowbird
