Bravo! Additional interesting images in post #11.
I can't tell, the the first image seems a bit soft, but #2 and 3 are very nicely focused. I like both of these because the bird is in front of a simple background, which allows it to really stand out. I also like see the catch light in the eye and the touch of yellow on the forehead! Both are interesting poses.
#4 is nice also. What post processing s/w do you use? I did a quick 5 minute play.....it is not perfect! I used PS ACR to increase the exposure about 1.3 stop. Then selectively lightened the bird. In PS CC, I again lightened just the bird using a dodge and burn adjustment layer. Perhaps the bird may now be too light compared to the surroundings...??? Lastly, I cropped a bit off the right side.....
I will delete immediately if you do not want this posted.
