David...both nice and sharp shots. I also like the highlights that was shaping the bird on #2 shot.

Very nice! I'm assuming you used the 150 - 500. I have never achieved this kind of sharpness from mine.

Love the poses, Dave, but honestly it looks a tad over-sharpened to me. Did you add a good bit of sharpening in post processing?

Thanks scott. No but in camera sharpening.They look a tad less on my HD then they do on flicker or here.Same amount in camera as this shot.

It may just be Flickr then. The fine feathers under the eye in the second aren't smooth like they should be. Look at the difference between the first and second shots. The first looks a bit better to me, more "Normal" I guess.

I notice that and thought It was just the angle. The default is 3 I have it on 5 on the sharpening but I will take it down on 3 just in case webs are sharpening some.next time out will see how that works.
