    Nice comps here - to my eye though all 4 images look underexposed.

    My faves are the last 2. (I really like the image of the osprey with the branch)

    I like them all especially the first one and I agree with Marko regarding the exposure. Great catches of one of my favourite birds!

    I agree with the underexposure. My guess is that you were in aperture priority and the bright sky and white one the bird fooled the metering and the camera underexposed the image.
    All of the shots are interesting. I always like behaviour shots like #2 with the nest building although the last it a nice shots as well. I would be inclined to add some canvas to the bottom of the image as the crop I feel is a little tight.

    Thanks for the feedback on the pics. You are correct Mike that I was in AV mode. I will play with the images a bit to lighten them up.
    I liked the nest building ones as well. The osprey spent quite a bit of time getting the placement just right. It was cool to watch.
