Harz mountains, Germany -- several birds (1 Viewer)

[Henry_Flower]

Hi, I have a few birds I'm unsure of from a trip last week to the Harz mountains in Germany.

Bird one -- eagle? I don't know what kind of eagle is most likely there, if so.



Bird 2 -- juvenile hawfinch?



Bird 3 -- sparrowhawk?



Birds 4 -- is this recording goldcrests, or firecrests (or something else)?

Thanks for help with any of these!

Sparrow hawk looks like a Kestrel to me Henry albeit with an odd warm tinted glow.
Agree on juv.Hawfinch.

Cheers

'Eagle' has 5 fingers, so Common Buzzard

The Regulus is/are Goldcrest, agree with the rest

Tail appears long, pics are terrible. Can we rule out honey buzzard?

Bulged secondaries, my money is on juvenile Common, but no, we cannot rule out Honey completely
