wow! very nice photos Reyno! my vote goes to the 4th pic, I think the important component of the flying shot is there, the wing span, head and the spread legs...great capture! Please share exif of the sets if you will...thanks.

Nice shots. Although on the third shot, sana the reflection of the bird on the water was complete : )
