Corvid(s)/Raptor(s), West Yorks UK, really bad photos... (1 Viewer)

Walking along the canal between Todmorden and Hebden Bridge the other day I saw two birds in aerial conflict, just over the edge of a wooded hillside. At the time I got the impression of a large corvid and a small raptor (maybe Raven and Sparrowhawk), but wasn't certain that the smaller bird was a raptor and not another corvid (maybe Jackdaw). However, when I got home and looked at the few photos I managed to actually get a bird in, one is clearly a Common Buzzard, while the other looks like some sort of falcon. I'm wondering if anything at all is identifiable from the photo with 2 birds in? (The Buzzard photo was actually a few seconds after the others, and the birds went behind trees and (re-)emerged, so there is a chance that 3 birds were present and B.b.buteo wasn't one of the initial combatants...)

The second photo is a Sparrowhawk. The first photo may well be two Sparrowhawks although rather hard to be sure from that photo

3 Looks like a Buzzard

My impression (though hard to be certain) was that the bird in the second photo was the upper bird in the first photo.

I know the photos are bad and I'm not expecting conclusive ID from any but the 3rd (Common Buzzard). But I'm wondering if it is possible to ascertain:

1) Can either Accipiter or Buteo be confirmed/ruled out for the lower bird in pic 1?

2) Is the bird in pic 2 (which I believe to also be the upper bird in pic 1) *definitely* a Sparrowhawk and not a falcon? (it seems to have fairly pointed wings with a short "arm", long "hand" and straight trailing edge, and I can half convince myself that there is a "moustache stripe"...)

I think first puc does not allow any ID
Second pic looks good for Sprawk but Kestrel may be an option
