Thanks for all of the replies on my bird ID question. The results were: Bird #1 5 people thought it was an orchard oriole, 2 a goldfinch and 1 a female western tanager. Another picture that I did not post shows the wing stripes of the oriole so I think this ID is correct. Bird #2 Everyone agreed it is a pine siskin Bird #3 Everyone (except me initially!) agreed it was a rufous hummingbird, probably juvenile. After a little more research I also agree with this ID
Thanks for all of the responses!
