NO WAY… too much in a bad mood!
I like the composition and the rendition of it!

Welcome to the club! :)
 
Welcome to the forum, nice little group of Waders there ... might work as a mono too, though some don't like mono bird images :)
 



Now you're really looking for trouble…
Both very good takes!
 
Hi mate, welcome, some nice shots here.

The Redshanks works really well with the one bird on the left giving us a view of his face as opposed to the others, nice work.

The Canada Goose has a lovely reflection, but there is a blue cast over the bird which I think you could do with fixing. You have 'no' ticked for edits so I've not posted a repost, but it does look nicer with cleaner whites.

The angle on the female Mallard goes to show what can be achieved with everyday subjects with a little thought, and she is framed nicely, good stuff.

Mike

Roger, are you suggesting I should reconsider my
camera settings and consequently my workflow just
because you are not at ease with a picture? Really?

Daniel I believe that you are confusing your posts and your PM's ... and you know I have already responded to your objection to my crit.
 
Great first set of photos, really like them all and look forward to more please keep them coming
 
Many thanks for the all the encouraging replies and advice - Much appreciated
