For the Birds

I spend quite a bit of time traveling the back roads searching for birds. I'm finding birds I don't normally see in my home state of Illinois. All of these birds are from my trip to the grocery store while spending time in Oklahoma. Yes, it takes me about twice the normal drive time. 

I think I have them identified correctly, but if you disagree, please let me know.

Loggerhead Shrike 


American Kestrel 


Eastern Bluebird (male) 


Eastern Bluebird (female) I do see these birds in Illinois, but in the summer, not the winter months.
