Pipits and other fun stuff from Namibia (1 Viewer)

Hi again,

After the raptors, here are the members of the unholy trifecta (pipits, cisticolas, and larks, plus a couple miscellanea) that I only got crappy shots of and left me scratching my head, seen in central and southern Namibia last month. Hopefully you can enlighten me once again

1.African pipit? Avis Dam, Windhoek. March 10th
2. Lark or pipit? Avis Dam as well
3. Grey-backed cisticola? Avis Dam again
4. Eclipse Marico sunbird? Daan Viljoen Reserve. March 11th
5. Juv. blue waxbill? Windhoek water works. March 13th
