And some more Kenyan Birds from July (1 Viewer)

Apologies for the poor quality - I could ID all my good pictures, these are the leftovers, and I would be grateful if anyone can pick out the birds.

1. Lake Naivasha. The yellow patch behind the eyes is confusing me, is it a thrush?
2. Just N of Masai Mara. I dont think I've overdone the colour, is this a raptor?
3. Just N of Masai Mara. Which Sunbird is this?
4. Masai Mara. A cuckoo I believe
5. Deep in the bushes beside Lake Victoria

Yes Emerald Cuckoo is correct
Scarlet-chested in Mara

The first is Wattled Starling, the second Purple Grenadier, I think, and the Cuckoo in four is African Emerald, in my opinion.

Last photo show a juvenile Ploceus weaver, probably not identifiable on such a photo. It does look like a Black-headed Weaver though.
