Can you clarify which photos are of the same bird/s. I think the bird in photo 3 shows the dark belly patch of a Brown Songlark but that bird in photo 4 is awfully heavily streaked. There also looks to possibly be white outer tail feathers showing in pic 2?

Photo 1 was taken about 14 minutes before photos 2 and 3.
Photos 2 and 3 are of the same bird and were taken less than one second apart. Sorry they are the best ones of that bird.
Photo 4 with 2 birds in was taken about 15 minutes after photos 2 and 3, the birds were quite a distance away so only photo taken.
Photo 5 was taken about 2 minutes after photo 4.
All of the birds were around the same area.
Hope this helps. Thanks for your time Ryu.

happy to redo photos 4 and 5 as Brown Songlarks and leave the others on until they have been identified then adjust as necessary just let us know. Thanks for your help.

Yes please do that. As I am sure you understand it is not possible to id a series of images with different species of birds. Chris

Crest, white sidetail and long hindclaw point to this one being a Skylark.
