I personally think they are all Bald Eagles. first one looks like an Adult . the rest are Juveniles at different stages of development. It takes a Bald Eagle almost 5 years to reach his true colors! (My 2 cents worth).
After consulting bird guides, my guess is this is an adult female snail kate because of:
1. the white band on the tale
2. the shape and size of the beak.
Nice shots. I especially like the one with the 2 of them, flying side by side. That's an unusual capture.

Birder-Schmerder! I'm no birder, but I can tell...they are all Bald Eagles.
Photo 1 is a full adult, 2 is almost there (it's dark, but you can see his white head if you look close), 3 is just starting to change over, 4 & 5 are Juve's and 6 has that dirty look sort of like #2. Almost adults.
This demonstrates great skill, capturing Bald Eagles in flight. In Alaska I learned how difficult it was to keep flying eagles in focus with my first video camera. Two cameras and nearly two decades later I would hopefully come closer to your level of success.
My favorite photo is the one with the two birds in it, Jeff
