Believe 1st image to be female Linnet - yes

Believe 2nd image to be female Linnet - yes

Believe 3rd image to be Whitethroat - yes

Believe 4th image to be Meadow Pipit - looks more like a Rock Pipit to me; was it close to the coast?

Not sure about 5th image, gull has yellow legs but looks to light for LBB Gull - legs look pinkish to me (pink / yellow can be surprisingly hard to differentiate in poor light!); I think Herring Gull.

Thanks for that Nutcracker, what makes you think Rock rather than Meadow (yes it was near coast)
 
Agree with the first 3 IDs. The pipit is a Rock (heavily streaked and rather dark face from what can be seen of it. Dark pink legs). On my screen the gull's legs look distinctly less yellow than the bill, so yes, I agree they are pink. Just that lighting or perhaps camera's white-balance settings make them look slightly less pink, so I agree with Herring.
