Would be really grateful if anyone could help me identify these birds (don't find these in Shanghai) ! These were mostly just snaps taken walking around at tourist sites with my wife. Sorry about the quality of the photos - many of these were taken at distance and often at dusk and most are very heavy crops.
I apologise for the cross-post (I earlier posted this in the wrong forum).
Bird #1 - is this the female of #2 below ? Golden Oriole or Grey Chinned Minivet ?

#8 - Are these just domestic doves or a native species ?

#9 - This was a long way away - probably well over 800m - so is a very heavy crop but maybe someone can identify it from the silhouette and light coloured head and nape ?

#11 - female Drongo of #12 below ?

#12 - male Drongo of #11 above ?
http://frogfish.smugmug.com/Other/Bi...ya-2012-XL.jpg
#13 - some form of Treecreeper ?

#16 - Is this the same bird as #11 above ? Looks like a variation in colouring but I may be wrong !

One thing is for certain - I'll go back to Sanya for a dedicated birding trip as these have reawakened my interest in shooting photos of birds !
Many thanks for your assistance !
