I'll return for the new one, can't remember the name right now. It was a "big one". Anyway, back on memory lane!
Anyway, Gthang, you said first photo was a Bush-crow. What the full name of that species?

Rasmus, I'll give you a big clue to the diver. The translated (English) generic name means "Western Bird"

Oooh, you are getting very close.....but not quite there. This one is a scientific name that uses greek, rather than latin......

Oops! Deleted my previous post by mistake:
It was something like this:
Should have paid more attention in latin class!
Only diver I can remember with a name that can (ok, admittedly rather vaguely) be translated to "western bird" is Neogaeornis. As far as I remember only one species in that genus: Google'd to find the full name: Neogaeornis wetzeli

Number three is a White-Bellied Heron. I remember a thread a while back on a nest of this bird .
Number four is a Great Horned Owl.
Number five is a Harris's Hawk.
Steve, maybe you should find picture where the filename doesn't give it away! Just letting you know!

Here's one for Gthang - now I'll get em. What is the rarest extant bird in Ardeidae? and another for Gthang - what is the common name of Zavattariornis stresemanni?
