Hi David, 
The Consensus is that #1 is a clay colored sparrow
and most think #2 is a song sparrow, here's another look:

But, many conflicts on the flycatcher, willow, pewee, acadian, one maybe 
least.. were all mentioned.
Thoughtful comments:
"I believe this one is most likely a Willow.  The wings are too 
long for a Least, and the narrow eye-ring looks about right for a Willow.
"Eastern Wood-Pewee (least would have a distinct eyering, 
shorter primary projection and,shorter, squatter shape overall, with a 
lighter colored head)."

Here's more looks at the flycatcher:

        Hi Everyone, 
        Thanks for the correction on the Henslow's sparrow. I represented it as 
a LeConte's and that was wrong. More than one of you said Grasshopper, but the 
consensus is Henslow's:

        I was so miserable at that one, that I would like to submit the 
following sparrow's and one flycatcher for ID help/review. 

        Sparrow 1

        Bonus:
        I took about a hundred pictures of the this Common Yellowthroat... this 
is the one in focus :(
        He posed for me and sang for about 5minutes at about 20yrds away!
