South-east Peru, July/August 2017 (1 Viewer)

I've just finally been able to put labels on most of my photos from Peru this summer, but a few are eluding me. Some of them, I suspect, are of a quality so bad that nobody will be able to do anything with them, or they just don't show enough, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

For the first two I don't have any other angles.

The first one was taken on a lake shore not far from Cusco (possibly Laguna Huacarpay). I can't remember too much about what I was seeing at the time.

The second is a flycatcher taken in the upper reaches of Manu National Park, not far away from the entrance. This bird didn't allow any better views.

The third (next two photos) was taken at very high elevation (above 4000m) in the Vilcabamba area. The terrain didn't allow a closer approach. Is this a spinetail?

The fifth is again from the Manu Road, not too far below Wayqecha Biological Station. The fact that there is yellow showing in the face area as well has me confused, or I'd assume it's one of the tanagers which is bright yellow below.

I have some more to come from this trip. Thanks meanwhile for your help,

Andrea

#1 Spot-billed Ground-Tyrant for me
#2 Rufous-bellied Bush-Tyrant??
#3-4 Streak-throated Canastero for me
 
Specatcled Red(White)start is an excellent idea for No 5 - there's even a bit of white visible on the tips of the tail. Sorry the other photos are so bad. I like all of Fritz's suggestions.
