I took these pictures last week from the pier in Oceanside, so they are in winter plumage in Southern California.
1 & 2 I am calling Brandt's Cormorant, although Double-crested is possible
3 & 4 I am calling Red-throated Loon, but Common or Pacific are possible
5 I am calling Eared Grebe, but Horned might be possible
With them diving & popping up, I am not sure I have two pictures of the same bird
