Bird ID help - UK, Coventry (1 Viewer)

Hi, I hope this is okay to post.

I used an Audiomoth device to record birds and I have run the files through both BirdNET and Chirpity.
Chirpity identified some birds that BirdNET did not. I have attached some sound clips that Chirpity identified - they are named as the bird that it identified.
Could anyone with an expert ear tell me whether any of Chirpity's detections are correct?

I apologise in advance for the sound quality - some are not perfect. I also appreciate it is quite difficult to identify some of the birds from the very short sound clips.
Any help would be very greatly appreciated.

The ChirpOMatic app confirms the Blackcap and Blue Tit with high levels of probability. However, it identified your Chiffchaff as a Common Redstart. The Great Tit recording was too mixed for a definite result on a recording of that length. I agree with others about the length of the other two- I doubt whether it is ever possible to accurately identify a bird based on a one second recording.
