They are all birds, of that I am certain :lol3. The first is a male Surf Scoter, 3rd is a female Common Loon, 4th is a cormorant. Not sure of the others off the top of my head.

Thanks! I had never heard of a surf Scoter. Found out a lot more about it when I searched the internet for that name. They moved so fast it was hard to begin to get a focus lock on them.
