Taken in April of this year on Lesvos.
Using the car as a hide.
At certain times of the day these birds would strike up
and start to fall ou amongst themselves.
Cropped to the vertical processed in NX

Great action capture Major :toast:

It looks a tiny bit soft on my monitor though and maybe more canvass left for an off-center comp and a sliver at the top too just to release those wings from the top frame edge.

Nice one :wavey:

Good action shot,shame the birds blend so much with the background but you take whats in front of you and for that you have done well
