Excellent takes… The first one is really clean and with pleasing soft colors, it's my favorite.

Yes - very nice.  I think I agree with Francois that #1 is my favorite but they are all nice.

Good shooting, Chuck. I'll take #2. I've shot an awful lot of birds and I know #2 is the most difficult, but it's also the most significant.

I agree that #2 is the most challenging but still prefer the first one for its simplicity. That being said, I would be proud to be the photographer of any photo in this set!

My thoughts exactly.
