This is a "feel good image" SYS! It's like this bird is in a fantasy place, flying amongst all these colorful flowers. If it were mine, it would go on the wall. Beautiful work!

Of all your crane shots in flight, I think I like this one the best, fotoi! Very nice work!

Very cool looking shot of this pigeon coming in, and putting on the brakes, Neal! I find shots such as this, where the bird is coming right at me, often quite difficult. Very nice capture!

Often mistaken, but never in doubt.

Thanks Dennis and Mike. I’ve only just got into birding and their flight profiles are simply amazing. Being an aviation person it astounds me how nature so effortlessly takes flight while humans strive with the aerodynamics and control of flight.
This particular shot took my fancy too of the series as I see its wings take shape to slow down and maintain lift, almost like leading edge slats and trailing edge flaps do on airplanes.
