Daniel,
 
Looks like a tough assignment ... You had done well using full flash!  I like the first and last photos however. I think you can improve the first one by cropping it into vertical and get rid of bright 'windows' on its left altogether.

KK, many thanks for your words.
 
I had used Av mode with -1/3 BB flash, i.e. I intended to capture the background light although the great contrast of white sky and dark tree-shadow was so unpleasant.  The object was also close to the leaf branches. These finally make it look like a full flash photo.
 
Should I try -1 BB flash next time?

I do think that you can get away with -1 stop flash compensation in this case. A slightly darker BG will in fact be working to your advantage ...
