Good shots! Is the shot of the eagle a 100% crop?

Thanks RPT, eagle is not 100% crop. Luckily i was close to eagle, it is around 25%.

Thank you everyone!

Actually, this photo was pretty hard to take. This bird takes off fast as lightning. I had to press the shutter button before the bird takes off

We see them often sunbathing or swimming, so I thought I'd throw one up of them flying, with his long pickerel smile!
