    Never really got an explanation of what this behavior is all about. Seems to be a lot of it going on now so I am wondering if it has anything to do with the coming departure of the colony.
    At any rate , it is fun to watch and great practice for flight photography.

    Nice image Joe, you've got those whites spot on. I still struggle a wee bit with them. I like the position of the birds between the clouds on a lovely BG. Well done

    I love the open beaks and wing positions on this one. Beautiful action and, as everyone has already mentioned, a perfect BG.
