A bird preening and alarmed.  Panasonic GH5@ISO800, Ai200/4.0@f8.0.  All images were cropped to around 1/2 to 1/3.

Nice capture, #3 and #4. They make me think of martial art fighters.

Lesser Striped Swallow, Olifants River, Limpopo, South Africa. It is holding some mud for nest building in the beak.
