I like the angle of the bird in this one Lez

Very much like the second photo- the composition, in terms not only of its pictorial aspect but also of subtlety of colour, is most graceful and pleasing to the eye. The subject looks to be in good focus across its wings, and the background is prettily blurred- well-judged use of appropriate lens aperture, resulting in this lovely study.

I shot this with a 150-500mm at 500mm f6.3

Thank you for the comments

Well done,Les..Even your grab shots turn out very well.Number 2 for me as well…and that's not to detract in any way from the first shot. Number 2 looks,is, close and personal,almost feels like you're landing with it and just look at the concentration in its eyes making sure it gets the landing right.

No 2 for me-well taken

Nice work again Les I do hope all this rain doesn't mean the place will be flooded when I'm up next week

I love the 2nd one as the background is uncluttered and subject in sharp focus.

Difficult bird well exposed ... another vote for the composition of the 2nd

No signs of flooding yet byuddy- I'll keep you posted
