Another beautiful set of flight shots, Allen. Interestingly, I favor the wing-up shot of the stilt because it has a bit more energy, but the wing-down shot of the teal shows the coloration on the upper wings so well that I have to reverse course on that one.

Yet more great flight shots! Spring is seeming to be excellent back there!
All are sharp, good wing positions and sweet colours.

As already said, more excellent flight shots. The second teal shot is my favorite, showing the colors and the detail is excellent.

You’ve got such a nice touch with these flight shots Allen. I am amazed at the clarity, the nice clear BGs, and the colors. Great work as always.
