Number one is a chipping sparrow with its rufous crown and dark eye-line extending to the bill.

Let me see if I can get these right. I'm still working on my sparrow ID's. I am 98.9% sure I am right.
1. Chipping Sparrow- due to rust colored crown
2. Song Sparrow- brown streaks on chest
3. White Throated Sparrow- yellow spot between eyes and white throat

Correct--Chipping, Song, and White-throated. Great photos of prime examples of the three classic Eastern backyard sparrows.
