I took these pictures a couple of days ago at Blenkinsop Lake (Victoria) while looking for the Vaux's Swift. The lighting was not great and these birds are so fast it is challenging to get a good shot.
I think the first 2 are Violet-green swallows because it appears there is white above the eye. I think the last 3 are Tree sparrows because there is no white above the eye and they seem kind of bluish.
Can anyone confirm?
Thx!
