strange to see mostly males in this flock
removed a few birds along the edges that were "chopped" off...

Very nice! I like this a lot! What approach did you take to focus on a group of small birds like this? My attempts have been inconsistent--lots of times focus locks on the background.

[Fabs Forns]

Very nice, Ken, I'd take some off the bottom, still leaving a clean edge.

[David Hemmings]

This is really pretty Ken, I like the fact that the birds mix so well with the habitat, hard shot to pull off right. I might take a little from the bottom as Fabs suggested.

awesome, really shows the abundance of life in Bosque. I agree you should try a crop off the bottom. A lower ISO may have given you a really cool blur with all those red winged males. I really like it though, thanks for sharing.

Hey Kenn,
Love the composition, and the action. The colors are very nice...
