I like it, Dan. The birds contrast nicely with the dark water. Good colors and great detail in the whites. The pano crop works well here.

Good timing to catch them all with their bills in the water. Nice contrast and composition.

Dan, I real.ly like this image. Wonderful behavior capture and the head angles are great on all of the birds. Good exposure control and the pano crop works great here. Lovely!

Although there's a lot of merging going on, it works as presented, their position show all yes and great angles, soft light helps and you have yourself a winner.

I like the color of the water and how all the birds' attentions are focused on the same area.
