According to "The BIRDS of HONG KONG and SOUTH CHINA", it said that crown feathers of Bright-capped Cisticola often raised. Is the second photo show it?

Or they are other kind of birds?

Thanks in advance

Thank you ajohn. I know that Zitting (wrong spelling last time) also raise its crown feather, so I cannot sure that the second one is a Bright-capped. Moreover thank you for telling me that Zitting has a "relatively deep bill base" which I do not see in my books.
