Wow, three different and excellent shots! I like them all. I think #1 is my favorite as I like the fact that all 5 birds are oriented in the same way. Nice.

Three excellent shots.  I too like #1 .... because it made me laugh ! Love the way they look like a group of teenagers, with their hair swept back, to me.  I also really like #2 because it is an unusual bird shot.

All you shots are exceptional, but the comp on 1 is special.

Very nice shots, Bruce!  The last is my fav of these shots.  The color of the reflection on the water is special.
