The skimmers were bringing fish in the hopes of finding a mate. It was most interesting to watch because sometimes they were successful and other times they were just ignored or passed by.

Judy, great sharpness, exp, and comp. These flight shots are tough. The only thing that I would like to see is a bit of eye. I zoomed in and there is an eye in all that black. I cloned one click of white from the body at about 60% opacity in the repost.

Beautiful light and wonderful wingspread with the fish. These birds with dark areas around the eyes and dark eyes are so difficult to get catch lights. The repost looks great....very natural. Well done.

Lovely light, Judy, and great wing pose. I like the repost because he separated the eye from the black mask.
