GREAT shot. I like this much better than the close-up. The open bills are very cute.

I'm also amazed by the focal length that you used...

Cheers

So great! I would love to post a comment that would make you learn, but I don't really think that would be possible on this one. I think you did everything right here, from the pano crop to the exposure and from the timing of the capture to the overall composition. I have never seen these birds in this way and it adds a lot of interest to them again :). Very very very well done!
