CLOSED: Bird Among Starlings

Aurora, CO(Zone 4a)

I snapped this photo and used it to illustrate the number of bird species that enjoy what we call our "Peace Birdbath". Sorry - Woodstock generation here. I've been assuming that the bird with his/her back to us is a female starling (to the left of the bird that I hope I'm correct in saying is a European starling). But now I feel a need to be sure before posting them someplace or using them in a blog. Can anybody help me so that I can get my info verified prior to making any incorrect claims? And while we're at it, those tiny guys at the far left are finches, no? Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you Resin! Birds' backsides always throw me.
