You did really well to catch theses fast moving wee birds, I have lots of empty branch shots.

Been there.

These are really nice. My favourite is no.4 but I would be proud to have taken any of these.

I'd have to say you really nailed that 4th one but the others are great, too. Their beaks are as big as their bodies. Very cool.
