great captures! the sharpness and colour are spot on but its a shame you clipped the wing on #2.

Great shots. How'd you get him/her to look towards you like that? Staple a mouse to the top of your lens by his tail?

Actually I was off to the side and other photogs were in front of the bird I was banging away and it happened to look over at me for a quick instant .......... Pure luck
