Hi all. I was photographing birds in India in Goa. I haven't identified these birds yet. Can anybody say what are these birds?

1. Black Kite
2. possibly Steppe Eagle (I have no experience with this species, but Spotted Eagle doesn't seem to fit very well? And my experience with S Eagle is not huge either).
3. Indian Roller
 
2. is Greater Spotted Eagle. Steppe Eagle would show larger bill and some patterning on the secondaries. And GSE is much more common in Goa.
