The 55-300 is not a bad birding lense at all - though a little slow in poor light and usually not great (I have seen some great shots) for BIF.
#1 & #2 the focus is spot on but in #3 it is a little behind the bird. Unfortunately the light doesn't look great for these shots but for the first two you've done a decent job. If you are patient with thrushes you might be rewarded with a shot of them pulling up worms - especially just after (or during) rain !

Thanks, Kevin & Stuart for the constructive, helpful comments.
Thanks, also, Roy.
No, of course I, absolutely, do not mind any move to improve my snaps (as you surely have with this one)!
What magic did you perform on it?
(Then I can do it myself next time!)
I have PSE9.

Unfortunately, I had to shoot through a (closed) window!
Notwithstanding that, I'm quite pleased with them.
