More help needed on IDing SA birds (1 Viewer)

Thanks again, all! I really appreciate it :) Some I have no idea, some I am looking for confirmation of what I think...

1- I don't really know...It was a bit larger than a Harrier Hawk and perched on a fallen tree in the riverbed that runs the road between Skukuza and Lower Sabie.

2- Possibly Green-backed Cameroptera

3- Grey-backed Cameroptera

4- Marico Sunbird?

5- No idea really.
