I was able to visit the rookery located at the UTSW Medical Center in Dallas, TX in the evening and morning light. I'm pretty happy with these shots but would like C&C as always.
#1 I like the way the natural light shone on the main subject and I like having the other birds in the background showing that this is a community of nests. It was cropped slightly.
#2 This one was watching me but wasn't spooked by me walking around to find a decent angle. I like the limbs framing it and I like the light. I should have used a more shallow DOF. I failed to change it after the previous shot that needed this DOF.
#3 I know some will find the bokeh distracting but I rather liked it. I did tone down the highlights on the log in upper right but looking at it now, maybe should do some more. It's also the least sharp of the group.
#4 I like the isolation of the bird against background.
