Desmond, the third pic was taking during dusk. It does have a mix of Swallows and Bats just as you correctly figured out but, a majority of the birds in the background were these kites. I just wanted to illustrate the large numbers of these birds found there.

But I do agree that the first two pics are black kites

That third picture is really throwing me off though, they seem to be some kind of bat, or swallow
