That's quite a unique flight pose, Shalu. It really looks cool.

What a cool action shot, Sid. It's amazing how brazen those crows are.

Fantastic shot, Mike! I love this bird, but hard to get a good flight shot.

Thank you Shalu. I appreciate your nice compliment and comment. I couldn't agree with you more about these birds being tough to photograph in flight. Hundreds and hundreds, and hundreds and hundred of my attempts are currently in the cyber garbage can. But you know the old saying, "a blind hog finds an acorn every once in awhile.
