Greetings!
I like the 2 pheasant shots, and also the fawn too.
Your duck is an immature Wood duck. That one too, is a nice shot, lots of detail there, immature ducks are sometimes pretty challenging as there can be a lot of variation to them.

Good lord that 600mm is sharp. Recently got into photography, and have been hovering over the buy button on a sigma or tamron 150-600. I don’t imagine either is nearly as clear is the L is, but way closer to my price range. Incredible pictures
