Jude, you have incredible hand holding skills! Sharp at 1/250 at 400mm on a crop camera is impressive.
When you convert from Raw is there sharpening applied? I ask because some of these are a little noiser than I would have expected.

Thanks Mike. No sharpness applied. Raw captures as well as jpeg one is opened in CS6 and resized only. Two reasons I can think of. I am always shooting NR off. And the other could be, in RAW no processing within the camera even. So when you pixel peep 100% the noise above ISO 400 is visible.
