Seen at Bombay Hook. Any ideas? I feel like they all are either Forster's or Common.

• Forster's, I think, based on the white edge to the tail
• Forster's
• Forster's, I think
• Common, based on the gray face contrasting with the white whisker.

Agree with all of Psweet's IDs. Additionally, the bird in four has a longer tail, which is a good mark for Commons, especially in breeding.

could 3 possibly be a Least?

Nope, bill would be a light yellow and the forehead would show a distinct white patch.
