I wish that top wing tip wasn't clipped (you knew I'd say that) but I love the take off action you captured here with this beautiful species, KK!

It's difficult enough to get a good takeoff shot of just one bird, but you have done it with a flock, KK. Very attractive flock formation during takeoff, and I love the lighting and splashing water. Well done!

Last "fixed" image is just great! To get all sharp and with nice HA's is so difficult. Very nice.
