Can someone please identify these birds? Taken in Skukuza Camp South Africa Oct I believe 2 & 3 is a Common Swift.
Thanks
Chris

1 is Burchell's Starling. 2/3 Little Swift. 5 looks like Green-backed Camaroptera. 4 is tricky but looks like a juvenile Cuckoo e.g. Diederik. Not totally sure on that one though.

Thanks Andrew. 4 is tricky indeed.

Agree diederik Cuckoo: white spotting on wing coverts

You're absolutely right. Thanks Tom.
