Very nice. If anything I would have liked to see more of the trees.

Good portrait of a beautiful bird. Agree with Phil about the 'noise', still not 100% on this camera, although this is one of the best I have seen.

Great shot, captures the environment very nicely. Looking at the stats I assume it was either very early or overcast so did well to get a nice sharp image.
