Need C/C, please. T2i+100-400mm

These are just some of the pictures shot in a local State Park yesterday during a rainy afternoon.  I hope the EXIF data appears for you.  I recently pur

chased a Canon 100-400 IS "L" lens and was not not having very good success with it.  These shots represent a tremendous improvement over my earlier efforts, however.  But, I'm still not happy with the sharpness.  On screen they look fine to me.  But when blown up (1:1) the images seem quite noisy and not as sharp as I'd like.  So what should I do next time to improve?  Most shots were taken from in a car (engine off); with a few resting on bean bag on window, and a couple totally free handed.

Thanks for the feedback.  I need to be handle this lens before heading off to Yellowstone in September.
