No idea of first bird.

Second bird maybe juvenile Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoo.

Taken at Gluepot Reserve,SA

1st one looks like a female Rufous Whistler possibly immature. EDIT: On second thoughts I think it's an adult due to black bill.

I think the last photo is a young Horsfield's Bronze-Cuckoo (rufous on the sides of the tail, pale fringing on the wing coverts)

Thanks Owl,SteveM.

I would agree with the Owl - immature female Rufous Whistler, the yellow gape is still evident
