Hi Guys, I photographed these 2 on different occasions in the Kruger Park. I am almost certain the second one is an African Goshawk. Is the first one one too?

First photo is a juv. Dark Chanting Goshawk. Second photo looks like a Little Sparrowhawk, but without having a size reference its difficult to say for sure. Could also be an African Goshawk.
