Good job Larry. Love the second one. Got one very similar, but not as sharp.

Lovely shots. So well done.
What camera and lens were used? What was your shutter speed?

I use a Nikon D850 and a Sigma 150/600 C lens. I generally shoot BIF at around 1/1600. I prefer to get a little wing blur to show motion.
Thanks for looking at my photos

We use the same camera. My 150/600 is the G lens by Tamron. Do you use a floating ISO setting? I try to keep the aperture between f/8 and f/11 unless I want a pure bokeh background, in which case I'll opt for f/2-2.8.

Looks grainy to me but the pics are very nice. That Wood Duck looks like it is about to fly through a venetian blind! LOL

Great pictures but IMO the duck really stands out. Thanks for sharing.
