I absolutely love the symmetry to this. The pano crop is perfect for the composition. I wish the bird in the lower left were in better focus but that's just being picky. :)

This image is a little more "out of the ordinary" and I think it works really well. I like the light background with slight patterns in the water, and of course the symmetry of the birds. I like how they're all coming at us, too.

I second Mike's ID.
They look like ruddy turnstones to me.

Nice shot.

Harvey,

This is very nice. The pano crop is the perfect composition for these guys.
