These are nice noobclicker! I think it would be better if you make the size a bigger. #1 is the best for me.

Looks like you did alright!

1 and 3 for me.

Even though I find the birds in #2 and #3 more interesting personally, (Common Merganser and Long Tailed Duck - had to look that one up in the guide book - never seen one before), image #1 is my favourite. I like the repeating pattern in the fence, and the tilt of the bird's head gives it a bit of personality.

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing :)

Birds are hard and these 3 are all sharp! I like 1 and 3 here!

Pretty good first time! #1 is nice!

thank you all for the nice comments

Very well done Noob. With Doug on this one about the environment surrounding the subject on #1. Also, larger would be nice. as these are nice, detailed, sharp images.
