I went shooting with Robert Amoruso yesterday at the Gatorland. Let me just put in a quick pitch for a day with Robert. I don't have the time or the space to tell you how great a learning experience it was, I'll just say if you get a chance to do this, DO IT. Thanks Robert. I was wondering whether I should crop out the rear of the bird in this image?

Very nice! If I have to pick something to wish for it would be just a touch more depth of field to get the farther bird more in focus, but that is very minor with the action and color in this image.
A week ago today we saw this same action, and wonder if the same pair is still building their nest. Were not able to get a nice image as you have. Good work.
