Well, someone has to say it. Those are Herons. Herring are fish. Even tho you were hampered by short glass I like #1 and#3.

Kris beat me.

Before anyone says anything , yes #3 has issues, centered subject going away and Transmission lines an light poles, but there is still something....

I thought maybe you had some photos from the April and May spring chinook salmon fishing season on the Willamette River,in the Sellwood Bridge to Kelly Point stretch, where a LOT of the sport anglers and the guides troll herring in one of the world's VERY few urban salmon fisheries, where a fisherman can hook and fight a salmon within site of skyscrapers less than 100 yards away. But hey, GBH, good too!

Come to Lake Ontario and fish just outside Toronto Harbour! Just don't eat anything over 16 pounds.

Nice shots, I have a pretty healthy population of these birds behind my house.

From a 50mm lens, not bad at all. Not something I would try, so good on you and came out pretty well considering. I like #4 the best, nice shot that one.

All the best.
