Hi Joseph ... this is really a charm .
Glad you got them in the frame and separated them nicely .
Overall colors are looking good to me , might watch the darker parts as there seems to creep some blue through . There is also some noise visible ... have you lifted the shadows ???
Subjects can stand a bit sharpening , I think .
pretty cool Joe to get three whistling ducks all relatively in focus and with good wing position is great! agree with bump up in contrast and sat and a tad more sharpening
Always a good day when a person gets 3 birds in flight that are sharp and not overlapping and with good wing positions.
Good one.
A bit more contrast would be good.

Thanks everyone for viewing and commenting, much appreciated. I will tweak the image a bit to see if I can recover more sharpness, maybe by adding a tad more contrast. I think I may have gotten all this lens can provide, it was a long time ago when I was just getting the bug to photograph birds.
