I understand your fascination with these little critters. When shooting animals, insects, or what have you, it critical that the eyes be in sharp focus. I'm not saying you don't do that but be aware of that issue.

In shots #3 and #4 I suggest that, since you included the back animals, all of them shown should be in good focus. I understand there may be occasions when you want to accentuate the forefront subject at the expense of the background subject. Use of a longer focal range in those two shots would have put all of the critters in focus and made for a more natural scene.

The thoughts are just my opinion, others may feel differently. Ultimately, the goal you have in mind is what really matters. There is a sub-forum for critical analysis and it's probably more suited for issues like this.

Thank you your right on!
I thought I would be going to take view photos from fast stop view point to San Diego..
I didn’t even know critters were there and I moved very fast to get them with out thinking always the eyes..
