Guess that Bird - Photo ID Challenge!!!

The Idaho Birding Blog vacation is now officially over.  I am back in hopefully a more restrained manner.  I thought it would be fun to start back up with a few photo ID challenges from photos I have taken over the last few months.  If you've been a regular follower of this blog, you will have an edge on a few of the photos.

Some will be easy and others will be difficult.  How many can you guess right?  Remember, color lightening/enhancement with photo editors is cheating!  I suppose zooming is okay though.  Answers will be posted in a couple weeks.  

Hint:  all of these birds were seen in Idaho in 2010!
