All of these are great shots. I particularly like the first and second ones. In the second one, you can tell he's a man with a definite idea in mind, can't you?

Wonderful set, Pauline! I love them all, such beautiful sharpness. That second one is hilarious -- what a great capture of the male strutting and posturing (I've met some males like that ... lol ... sorry, guys, I know none of the DPS men are like that!)

Very nice set Pauline, but number two looks more like, keep moving, you are in such trouble! Guess it's the father in me.

Nice set Pauline. I like the crystal clear water you've captured in your duck pictures, but the aggressive stance of the pigeon in your second is the winner! Great capture.
