I like #3 - it looks like he's trying not to crash into the water.

Love the spoonbill coming right at you! I've tried to get one like that but always failed! I just haven't trained my birds right!
Beautiful series, one and all!

Hehe! I love the one with the two birds towards the bottom. I love how sharp it is, and the energy. It's like they're talking to each other:

"Frank! Did you get the woims?! I been waitin fuh three owahs!" "No, Shoily, deys outta woims! I been tryin' to tell yous dis all DAY!"

Sorry about that, I think I've been watching too much cake boss. I love their accents. hehe
