Could you please help with the ID.

My guess:

#1 Either Dark Chanting Goshawk or Gabar
#2, 3 and 4 Lizard Buzzard
#4 Yellow-billed Kite?

All different individuals photographed around Entebbe and the Mabamba swamp.

Thanks for your assistance!

The first is African harrier-hawk/Gymnogene: note the bare skin around the eye. Think others OK

[Edit: it's excited: why the skin looks reddish]

Thank you. Great feedback! I would have never thought of African harrier-hawk, with that reddish color. I'll wait to see if any one else has an opinion about the rest of birds.
