1) Yep
2) Looks like a Mangrove Honeyeater
3) Yep
4) Will leave this for now, can't make out colour of mask properly. Could be Little or maybe young Noisy. Not sure
5) Yep
6) Bill colour looks OK, but not sure if it's the darkness of the photo (or my screen)
7) Yep
 
2. Singing or Mangrove Honeyeater (leaning toward Mangrove)
4. Immature Little friarbird (the head doesn't look bald to me from what i can see in the photo)
 
2 is Mangrove Honeyeater. Face/neck markings don't look quite right for Singing.
4 is hard to tell but I lean towards immature Noisy Friarbird
6 is Greater Crested Tern.
