But first, the answer to the last one. First of all, thanks to Alvan for answering! The birds that I can hear in the background are White-throated Sparrow, Song Sparrow, Golden-crowned Kinglet and Magnolia Warbler. They are a little hard to hear over the Goldfinch though - maybe next time I will pick a species that doesn't sing so often!
So now for the quiz - since I am running out of 'good' quiz shots, here are some specks for you to try to ID! I think they should all be identifiable...

1 Parasitic Jaeger + 2 herring gulls at Whitefish Point, MI?
2. N. Mockingbird?
3. Red-tail?
1: I'm assuming we're trying to ID the dark bird?
Ibis sp. - the wings seem like they're held forward which gives the impression of being an Ibis.
I don't really see a big bill so maybe it's just a goose or something else entirely different.
2: Shrike sp. (probably Northern Shrike but can't rule out Loggerhead).
3:Eagle sp.
Difficult quiz!
1. Jaeger of some sort - probably PAJA?
2. Not sure...considering there are leaves I wouldn't think its a N. Shrike...but it kinda looks like one! Perching like one too
3. Bald Eagle? Raptor sp. is the best I can do
