Beautiful shape to the Dowitcher flock, and excellent depth of field with good detail and sharpness throughout the flock. Well done, KK.

Flock shots are difficult because many of the birds end up OOF. You seem to have concord that problem with this image. Not only is the composition great but all of the birds are in focus. Great image KK.

Lovely flock and Birds in Flight shot. Particularly like the way in which all the birds' stance is identical
