Terrific shot with a wonderful sense of the turkey vulture thinking "what am I doing here ?". The "expressions" of all the birds are really great. Great looking image in all respects.

Awesome shot. Great job getting separation - the only overlap is minimal, and it adds to the story w/ the Julie demanding attention.

Gene: What a cool and interesting shot. Kinda reminds me of one of our homeowner association monthly meetings.

Brilliant frame, Gene! Wonderful body language going on with each individual and getting them lined up like this is priceless. Love it!
