Gordon,

I think you should move this image to the AVIAN gallery. You can do this easyly by editing the post and changing the gallery.

Other then that I like the winter mood of the image and to let the birds stand out stronger I would recommend an crop to a more panoramic look so that you can eliminate some areas from the top and bottom that are not contributing to the composition.

Hi Gordon,

I took the liberty of moving this image over to the Avian Gallery. Whilst I suppose it's likely there's a mouse or two under the snow in the background, I'd argue this image is still more about the feathered subjects (especially given the title!).

Welcome to NPN!

Cheers...

Brad

Welcome to NPN and the Avian Gallery, Gordon.  This image has a great winter feel to it, and it's really cool to see the geese coming at you this way.  It looks like most of them are in pretty good focus and I'm seeing surprisingly little motion blur for the shutter speed.  A very good first post.  I look forward to seeing more.
