Wood Duck up a Tree, Twin Owl Babies, Kingfisher and more

#1 - Wood duck: hazy white sky livened up with Topaz Simplify split toning layer, then I masked the duck so it is "real" (and it really was in the tree :) ).
#2 and #3 - Mom great horned owl was on a shady limb above the nest late this afternoon, while babies (my first time seeing both!) panted heavily with sun beating right on their backs.
#4 - Ducks in early morning mist (Picasa "boost" enhanced). Not sure of species.
#5 - Caught the male belted kingfisher hovering over the river near the eagle nest again. Hard to get camera to focus on the bird and not the background! Heavily cropped.
#6 - Another shot of my bighorn babies from yesterday.
Canon SX50. Edits in PSE 12, Topaz Simplify and Topaz Detail, and Picasa.
Thanks for viewing!

Very nice series of pictures. I am new to Digital photography and have yet to explore wildlife shots.

How nice! Love the owls and kingfisher especially. Plus I really like the effects and frames. Good job with your pp. Way beyond my capabilities!

Thank you kindly, Ellie. It's been a happy surprise that I am enjoying (so much!) the journey of learning these programs :)

Love your work. Where is Henry Fonda in #4? On Golden Pond comes to mind......but maybe more beautiful here.

Great work, Linda. The owls are fantastic, but for me, number four here's the one I'd have on the wall. Excellent!!!
