Robin those look really good. I think they are excellent copy write ideas, letting the bird out of its cage, considering the DFD logo is a bird.
For the website header do we need a wider logo? If so maybe a single cage with the OO orb to the right, same text underneath? Up to you Robin and if Rob Weir requires it. I think the two above are good size for posting to social media and sharing. Thank you for helping!
