This is great.
So nice colours, both the birds and the sky.
(It's been raining in Finland for a week now.)
And a nice composition.
Thank you for sharing the picture.

My pleasure, and thanks for the kind words. They are beautiful birds, especially to see them flying out over water to catch insects; such agile flyers but too quick for me to catch with camera.

I truly apologize, Tom. :oops: :oops: The forums are time consuming, and I try to go too fast. That is a recipe for disaster in my case. Plus, old age is definitely not helpful.

Cool shot, Richard!

thanks Mike
that was a rather special half hour spent watching them in a gumtree nearby.
Then they flew off and landed here
I'll post more on that later.
