Less than optimum views on the two sparrows, but my guesses would be a swamp sparrow for #1, three mallards for #2, song sparrow for #3, #4 looks like a female green-winged teal, and #5 is a Northern mockingbird.

Re: Mill Creek Marsh, p1

I agree with all of those. I love the Swamp Sparrows bright rufous wings (especially noticeable on the secondaries in your photo).
