agree with 'Cocky, and suggest that birds in post #2 look like widowbirds.

as an aside, for many spp, whether or not the location is Serengeti or Ngorogoro can be very helpful, and even the location/habitat within those locations.

if for example the weaver, pic #3, was by the car park where you're allowed to get out and walk, at the wet bit at the north end of the crater at Ngorongoro, I'd suggest Speke's Weaver
