Nicolle, I think it would be helpful to crop and magnify the birds in the photos to facilitate their identifications. Also some photo editing can brighten the photos and bring out some of the plumage characters. My “guesses” on the identities are: 1) “Audubon’s” Yellow-rumped Warblers in May 2009; 2) Ruby-crowned Kinglet in Aug 2012, and 3) Mountain Bluebird atop the conifer. Working with the photos will facilitate and hopefully confirm these identifications.

I was hoping that someone might help a hack birder like me identify 3 birds. I have posted a link to my Facebook album where I have posted 3 photos of what I think is a Warbler, possibly Orange-crowned , Virginia or MacGillivray's sighted near Chatfield Arboretum in May of 2009. The next is a grainy photo of a possible Vireo taken in Rocky Mt. Nat'l. Park at the beginning of this month. The last two photos of the bird perched atop a conifer were also taken in Rocky Mt. Nat'l. Park this August. I don't even have a guess on this one, at the risk of embarrassing myself. As always, any guidance or insight is always needed and appreciated!
