The second pic is my pick of the bunch. Great pose by the bird and your quick reflexes have shot it superbly. Well done. The duck seems a bit overexposed. The rainbow lorrikeet looks nicely saturated brining lots of colour in it's beautiful colour scheme.

Great pics.

#2 does it for me aswell......but what is with the name Jgang Gang? I thought they were Red-Cheeked Honeyeaters. Also check your exposure between a sequence of shots eg. the Rainbow Lorikeets. #1 looks flashed, #2 doesn't so the colorings tend to look different.

There was a sign calling these birds a Jganga gang, but I also know them as a Red Wattle Bird!
With the lorikeet I tried with and with out the flash! I didn't have to adjust the saturation as these are straight out of the camera!

Nice shots from the big park Scott - bird shots are nice and sharp; however it looks as though the white balance is a bit "cool" in the second lorikeet pic...otherwise nice job!
