Attached some smartened photos of OP Photo One, Photo Two and Photo Four. Hope these help.

I think one is White-eyed Slaty Flycatcher. It looks generally right and seems to have the distinctive 'blue-grey, black-tipped bill' that the books mention.

I would go for Zitting for the Cistcola (it seems to have a rufous rump) but I'm certainly open to other suggestions.

Agree with Hildebrandt's for the Francolin

I think Rufous-naped for the Lark
