One of several shots; the birds showed up much better against the dark blue-gray water, but I thought this was more dramatic.

A beautiful capture of the flock in flight, Craig. The water adds a very nice environmental element to the image.

Beautifully done, Craig,
I love the way the egrets are flying in nearly perfect synchrony,
And the blending of action in the birds and crashing surf.
