Great Tit and Blackbird are both excelent, way too tight in the frame though.
Try a different crop giving the birds some space to "look into" and I bet both would get accepted into the PPG.
Good use of Depth of field with the Duck but too much litter around and too mundane a subject to create any WOW factor for me, would be much better with some Orange Sauce

A few of them look way over-sharpened to me I'm afraid, especially 2,3 & 4.

Having looked at these again (with my readers on this time) I have to agree with Ken, they do look over-sharpened. How do you sharpen?
As for the crops, yes you have gone too far the Great Tit doesn't need that second out of focus bird below it, crop it into a rectangle so to just remove the second bird, it could be argued that coming further up to remove that "bump of twig" would also be better. Cant decide with the Blackbird, it is a lot better than it was, this is one of those where several different crops would work OK.
Dont you mean "Crappily Cropped"
