Unidentified brown birds.

Deep South Coastal, TX(Zone 10a)

We go wildlife watching every evening from around 4 pm till dark. There are so many UBBs I started taking photos. These were in a flock, hundreds of them. I thought at first they were red wing black bird (females and juvies) till I zoomed in on them. It's migration time, we're in a flyway so we see all kinds of birds passing thru.

I think this one is different. Not on the same day, not in the same area, all alone sitting on a dead stump. It flew out to catch bugs. Sorry the photo is not so good, I really had to use the zoom and a car was coming!

Another one, different area, close to where the first birds were seen. Savanah Sparrow?

#1 and #2 are Red-winged Blackbirds

#3 is a female Yellow-rumped Warbler

#4 Tough one, but I think I'd agree with Savannah Sparrow. I could be wrong though!

Resin, so my first impression was right on #1(I saw them again last night and there were some male red-wings with the flock). I figured #3 was the yellow rumped. Thanks so much!
I saw a large raptor last night. I'll probably need help with that one. I took a photo.
