I like the way the lesser is framed by the 4 greaters. It would be even stronger if the 4th bird also had its head turned around backwards like the other 3. You might consider cropping a little off the top.

Hi Rick,

I wish you were able to use some fill flash to eliminate those shadows. I like the composition.

Apart from being a very nice atmospheric image, it really underlines the size difference between the Lesser and the Greater Yellowlegs.
