I am posting two crops from the set of RAW photos I posted earlier. DPP settings are 6 for sharpening, light fall-off correction and Auto Lighting Optimizer set to Standard, no other changes or modifications.
I was trying to also post the full 21 MP JPEGs to Flickr, but I\'m limited to 10MB per file, so I\'ll try to figure something else out.
In the mean time:
First crop: 105mm FL, 24-105, IS ON, 1/125, f/5.6, ISO100 , Center Point Focus on *left bird*:
Second crop: 105mm FL, 24-105, IS ON, 1/00, f/5.6, ISO100 , upper focus point on bird:
Based on the first photo, it seems like the right bird (further behind) is more in focus than the one on the center AF point (yes, left bird was the AF point, DPP confirms it). Looking at the second picture, the leafs feel \"oveprocessed\" and \"unsharp\" but the only process has been lighting and DPP\'s sharpening of level 6. Nothing in the second picture leaps out in crispness or clarity, even in the focal plane of the bird (i.e. even at f/5.6).
I\'m trying to borrow a decent tripod & other set of lenses to check it out.

Comments welcome.
