    Aerial confrontation between adult Skimmers above the nesting colony. Not sure if the feathers on the upper Skimmer's bill is from an attempt at one of the chicks, or is a result of the adults nipping at each other (hopefully the latter)

    Looks good Ken Very nice interaction captured !! Glad you got ample shutter speed for making a sharp image. Whites do not look over but would like seeing some detail in them, would also desaturate the sky some !! Excellent !!!

    Ken:

    Good critique from Alfred. Do really like the interaction shown. A bit of recovery on the whites would make it even stronger.

    Cheers

    Way to go with the action, Ken. Wish you could see the eyes more and agree on de-sat the sky.
    Thanks for being part of the project!
