    You couldnt have timed this better, if you tried a million more times. I would maybe take a bit off the bottom.

    The angle is a bit steped to my taste and I would crop a bit from the top and right to give the birds free space to fly. Very sharp and good action

    I like that you were able to capture the the three birds without any overlap. Good detail. Another vote from a little more room for them to fly into.
