Those are quite some shots.
The cardinal image is special because I guess of striking colours.

The hummer looks a little over-sharpened and the woody looks a little soft. Great series. I like the mature bald eagle the best. Nicely done. --Rick

They were all taken from the same blind while shooting Eagles. the small birds were a diversion.

Great series, this swamp I will take it is where you take the photo`s of the eagles? For some reason I had always thought that they were taken on some windswept hill somewhere :oops: .

These are from my closest hide, steeper angle to the Eagles but a little more open. All of these were taken in same location.
