#2 and #3 look to be Red-bellied Woodpecker. #5 is a Mississippi Kite. They're beautiful birds. Great shots.

1) Don't feel like identifying lol
2 & 3) Red-bellied Woodpeckers
4 & 5) Mississippi Kites, adult and Juvenile(?), respectively.

Good timber does not grow with ease:
The stronger wind, the stronger trees.
The further sky, the greater length,
The more the storm, the more their strength.

First one is a flycatcher, but that's as far as I'm willing to go. Agree with the other IDs.
New Year's Resolutions:
Get my lifelist to 300 (at the time of the original writing-293, currently-294)
Finally get Mountain Quail and Vesper Sparrow
Top my previous single year best (2011-253) I'm at 210 as of 6/11.

#1 is a Wood-Pewee, by range it would be an Eastern Wood-Pewee.
