Time to migrate

Shovellers have been staying out of the reach of my lens for a while now. So I decided to try out group shots today. Got one where I liked the head positions, wing positions and the separation between them. After many many tries. These are so much harder to pull off than I thought they would be.

All opinions welcome.

Great caption and like the story this images portrays. Good exposure and detail and well composed !!! thanks for sharing Kaustubth.

I like the even spacing of the birds and the nice wing position of all 4. For group shots, I would go for a bit more DOF (not that there's a lack of it here) because the birds don't always line up so nicely for you.

Hi Kaustubh,
Very nicely captured and the wing position and the position of the birds in frame is very nicely done!
