Skagit Flats near Mt. Vernon, Washington. Taken during a bit of light on a snowy day in December. Even though there is overlap, I liked the wing positions.

Hi Terry,
I too like the wing positions, but the overlapping birds and noise detract from the image, IMO.

I have to agree with Jim on this one. Not an easy task to photograph multiple birds. Keep them coming!
I actaully like the overlapping birds and the whole image design. And you finally got them flying towards you. I believe that you left the flash info out...

No flash was used.
