thanks!
 
Let's start shaving 'em down....

1 is obviously a Pratincole, IMO Collared.
2 Male Marsh Harrier, tho' in Pakistan would that be our Eurasian spp.?
3 Male House Sparrow
11 Crested Lark
12 Pochard
17 Whiskered Tern
18 IMO Clamourous Reed Warbler
19 Chaffinch
 
My bet
1 Small Pratincole
2 Marsh Harrier
3 Spanish Sparrow
4 Small Minivet
5 White-tailed Lapwing
6 Goshawk
7 Yellow-legged/Caspian Gull, not sure in PK
8 same
9 Greenshank
10 Tawny Pipit
11 Crested Lark
12 Common Pochard
13 a bunting, no idea which
14 Yellow-footed Green Pigeon
15 Brown Rock/Indian Chat
16 Large-billed Crow
17 Whiskered Tern
18 Clamorous Reed Warbler
19 Chaffinch
20 Scaly-breasted Munia
 
I suspect the bunting in No. 13 is a female/immature Red-headed Bunting. This ID is supported by the same photographer having this as an adjacent photo. The accipter (no. 6) looks like a Goshawk to me.
 
my guess is that 3 is spanish sparrow.
18 looks a lot like the great reed but it depends on it size if it is about 18-19 cm then you r are fine with this id.
