I agree, though 1) could be either juv Carrion Crow or Rook, most likely the former.

1. Possible juv Rook for me because of the peaked crown. Bill doesn’t seem heavy enough for Raven. 2 and 3 possible Meadow Pipits and 4 Willow Warbler due to leg colour, long primary projections, distinct supercilium and light cheek colour.

(Upper) Bill surely too curved for rook: carrion crow for me

Yes, on second thoughts you’re right, the upper is very curved in contrast to a juv Rook.
