Amongst my bird images from Tanzania are a few I'm having trouble identifying - all suggestions gratefully received. This is the first batch - a few more still to come

Is this an Ashy Starling or a Kenrick's Starling?







Northern Crombec?







Rufous-naped Lark?







Some sort of Whitethroat?

That is quite a tail on the first one. This one shows a bit dark on my monitor.
#2 looks like a favorite roosting spot judging by all the white wash I like the shot
#3 looks like a Lark of some type for sure to me too
#4 the colors look pleasing, was that the wind ruffling the feathers?

Niall,

I think #1 is Ashy sterling.

#4 is Winding cristicola.

Excellent set. I am amazed to see so many bird species in TZ. Sensory overload.
