    And I always thought of Coots as being docile...
    What a great action shot.

    Since I was just working on some Coot pictures myself I'm aware of how bright their beak is. Is there any way to bring back a little more detail there?
    I'm surprised with the apparent depth of focus since you were shooting at f/6.3.

    excellent dynamic interaction, it's great that we can see both heads and eyes and both eyes are open. I might do another pass of sharpening on the birds

    Great action shot. Love the symmetry of the subjects and the water droplets.

    Great action, poses, and framing. Love the foot. The left hand bird is nice and sharp and nice and black. The right hand bird not so much. Thus the repost....

    Awesome action with very nice poses and splashing water. Artie's repost is a nice improvement.
