This last one I need help with please. I claim it to be an Ayres Hawk Eagle, but I can't see myself being so lucky with two lifers in one morning???

Cute squirrel O/\

All hornbills are terribly curious lol (Maybe apart from the ground hornbill -O- )

What the raptor is concerned, I think that you'll have to do with African Hawk-Eagle ;-) (No heavily striked underparts)
