They are fast...very fast. I like the pose a lot; the back is nicely visible. Great eye contact, I can almost hear the bird calling out. BG is very nice as well. Big congrats for this one.

Excellent capture. Fantastic flight pose BG and the open bill puts this one over the top for me.

I call these birds "screamers" and for a good reason.... they SCREAM!
I like the banking coming back position, its always nice seeing those topside feathers.
The eye contact is good as well.
