as colorful and detailed as the mandarins are, I still have to go with the jays as my favs. Comps, colors and BG's are super Steve

Beautiful Steve, but it looks like you may have used a tad too much flash on # 1. Hopefully I'm wrong...

BTW, when it rains here it pours - - the sky opens up & someone has turned on a faucet full speed & left it running..... ;-)

Very pretty pictures - a VERY good start for the year. I really like #2, and the ducks are quite nice too; well done.
