Great behaviour shot!!!

[Grace Scalzo]

Flying feathers and kicked up sand make this one for me.

[Leo Berzins]

Great action captured James.
Love the ballet like pose of the OC on the left. :S3:

[Daniel Cadieux]

Awesome action and behaviour. I like that one bird has under the wings visible and the other the top...creating a nice contrast of light and dark. I'd get rid of the OOF circle almost touching the left bird's wing.

[Joe Murphy]

Great action shot James, both birds are nicely detailed.

[Frank Schauf]

Very nice colors and great action, James.

[Bruce Enns]

It's all been said above...great action with great details..love this!

excellent behavioral shot and great that you got both of them sharp. I'd try to bring out more details from the blacks in the top side
