Help me ID these Bots Birds, please (1 Viewer)

Thanks in advance!

1-Delta. Since this photo isn't super clear, I'll describe it a bit more: yellow extends all the way to the bill, upperparts/head are very much more blue than green. Feeding on a Kigelia tree.
2-Maun
3-Maun. I've ID-ed the White-browed Sparrow Weaver, but what are the birds lacking the brows?
4-This one is actually in the Caprivi Strip, Namibia near Divundu
5-Chobe.

Hi Babybirder,
My take on the Ids are
1) Male Collared Sunbird
2) Red Billed Quellea Female or Non breeding male
3) Parrot Billed Sparrow which is a split from Grey headed Sparrow and in between them there is a White browed sparrow Weaver
4) Cabanis's Greenbul rather than Terrestrial brown Bul due the the Half baked ring around the Eye not complete as it should be in the later!!
5) Wood Sandpiper

See if this may help you!!

I think the species you mention in 3 and 4 are not found in Botswana or northern Namibia, where the pictures were taken. Their distribution is further north.
