The following ones I took around the resort we were staying and also at an Eco Park in Riviera Maya, Mexico and having difficulty in definitely ID them. Hope some experts chime in.

1&2: Great Kiskadee on the left and Social Flycatcher on the right - am I right? There were quite a few birds with yellow belly that were difficult to distinguish. Social Flycatcher, Couch's Kingbird and Tropical Kingbird, for example.



3. No idea. Looks like a mocking bird but it doesn't seem so.


4. Cardinal on the left, what's on the right?


5. A female Blue Grosbeak?


6.No idea.


7. Grassland Yellow Finch?


8. No idea.


9. A male Blue Grosbeak?


10. No idea.

1&2 I think you are right.
3. Tropical Mockingbird is the mockingbird occurring in Yucatán
4 and 6 Agree with House Finch yellow variant
5 and 8 I think are female Indigo Bunting.
7 looks like a goldfinch. Lesser Goldfinch is the one occurring there.
9 is Blue Grosbeak.
10 Could be a Summer Tanager (female/immature)
