    That's a pretty nice frame!! Good looking pose of the incoming bird and I like the relaxed feel of the resting flock. Nice colors and BG too. Well done

    Agree with everything Dave said. Love how the incoming bird is against a full green BG - that separates it from the rest of the group and makes it stand out even more. Beautiful.

    Terrific shot, Lorant. I've witnessed this many times, but never been able to capture it so nicely. Great focus on the incoming bird, good wing position, low POV. Just wish the center tern hadn't intruded.

    Excellent capture! You tracked the incoming bird very well. The exposure looks great and the the subject really stands out against that lovely green BG. Well done.

    what everyone said....Nice opportunity grabbed, I like the sharp subject focus with the group slightly blurred.
