Went to a rookery I like to visit during the late spring and summer months this past weekend. Things seem too be a month or so behind from last year. still no chicks in the nest and some were still even building nests.

Masterpiece, #3 & #4. I am also fascinated by the positioning of your signature on the pics. A lot to learn here :)
 
Those are some wonderful birds! Love #8 for the depth of field you've captured. Gives the viewer a great understanding of the surroundings as compared to just oof bg's.
 
What a great collection, #1 is my favorite but the others are also very good. The first one has a great pose, BG, light and colors - it all matches very well.
 
Wow! As always, just stunning photos. I particularly like the RWBB because in my experience they have been elusive at best and I have not seen many good photos of them.
