Not great using my new camera yet, but any thoughts on Hairy or Downy?
Taken today in NJ.
Thank you!

I'm not going to try with the thrush, but the woodpecker is either a Downy or Hairy. I can't see the bill well enough to say which one, though.

The first thrush looks like a Wood Thrush. The next two aren't, but I'm not sure which ones they are.

The thrush in the second and third picture were the same. He was more gray than the Wood Thrush, and the eye ring seems like it would be helpful but I can't decide.

Fairly certain the woodpecker is a downy.

I think it's a hermit or swainson's, leaning toward hermit, even though the tail doesn't look red.

Now I'm leaning toward Swainson's, because that tail doesn't look even remotely red, and think lack of buffy face may just be angle and lighting? Ask me again in 5 minutes, and I'll probably have flipped back toward Hermit.

I see Wood Thrush for #1, Can not be positive for #2 but I would lean strongly Swainson's based on the eyering.
