7 - Anthreptes malacensis heliolusius, female (Plain-throated Sunbird, aka Brown-throated SB)
8 - Anthreptes malacensis heliolusius, male
1, 3, 4, 6 - Leptocoma sperata juliae - male (Purple-throated Sunbird)
5, 10 idem - not sure if there are intergrades with race sperata in this location.
11 - Hypsipetes philippinus saturatior - (Philippine Bulbul)
2 - for me, Brown Shrike. The angle of the photo presents problems. However, the undertail is consistent with cristatus - validirostris has a dark brown, or light grey undertail - this is too light. Further, I see a white wing lining, and the primary edges appear too light to me for validirostris.
The last photo? Not even sure they are of the same species. The one on the left could be a Bulbul (but the confusion species could be the Macronus striaticeps though I don't think this is streaky enough on the upper breast, but unfortunately the crown is hidden here behind a branch) at a real bad angle shortening all of the morphometrics that are usually needed to give a decent ID. I would be just guessing on the bird on the right - the bill is not visible in all of its length among other things, and I can't really discern here what is actually bird parts and plant parts - especially trying to figure out the wing length.

I agree with Steve. The last photo is, I think, Brown Tit-babbler. Not sure about 9 beyond a female sunbird

Thank you Sir Mark and Sir Niel. Probably Sir Niel we do have same birds in our AOR because Mt. Kitanglad Range and Roxas-Daguma Mountain ranges are connected...
