In pursuit of her ambition to be a vet, my eldest daughter is now getting some work experience at the local Wildfowl and Wetlands centre so it was a good chance to have a look around, and take some pics

You did well :? I hope your daughter succeeds in her career and doesn't "borrow" your camera too often.
Three very different and very interesting images. Although I found that just a touch of sharpening helped the first shot.
Thanks for the post.

Excellent. I nearly read that as Barrhead geese - particularly nasty-when-drunk Scots variety :-)

Hmm, very nice Paul. :D

Your daughter's new occupation works for creating a beautiful library of birds for you. A good opportunity and a neat calm in all photos.
Good colours and sharp lines....unfortunately this Sigma lens can't be found in Alpha mount in Istanbul at the moment; only Canon. I hope new alpha-mount batches arrive soon for me to sample one.
