No love/ID on my raptor?

oh sorry, northern harrier female I do believe(may be a juvenile, but I can't see the chest)

First look at one of these...

Not much good, but taken in the rain from far away.

I'm not too good at terns, but that has got to be a least tern.

Saw this little one when I was out today, got a few shots, nothing all that good though. Doesn't look like any that I've seen before, unless I just haven't been paying attention, which is a good possibility.

That's a female oriole, baltimore oriole I do believe.

Took these about a week ago, the first one here I think is a field sparrow? Its the only pic i got of it:

Then I saw this one sitting on a branch for the longest time, some kind of thrush but not totally sure which one. I'm thinking maybe gray-cheeked thrush?:

Yes that's a field sparrow and your thush looks greycheeked/bicknells to me. Call is how those two are best ID'd.

A yellow warbler?

Thanks Paul, it's super cool seeing all the "new" birds around lately! I'm 99.9% sure this is a/an indigo bunting(?) Sorry about the bad pic.
