I don't know if the artist behind #11 is available, but it might make it a little more PC to remove the lower left & right vertical feathers. For some reason, I think that would make it evoke less of an image of a person to me. Though it's less of an issue for the small versions of that logo (100x30, for example). Anyway, I do like it.
