    Attachment: birds 055.jpg
    the first picture shows 2 birds they were an olive color. no idea what they are.  the second picture I believe is a Eurasian collared dove.  the third picture is of an oriole.  I believe it is a fledgling,  However I don't know what kind of oriole.  As always thank you for all your help!

    Yes, American Goldfinches. They are bright yellow only in breeding plumage. At other times they can be olive or even a greenish color.
