What a cracking flight picture this is rka, with some lovely plumage detail showing.

We don't have a flight image in The Opus, so I'll upload this one to the article shortly.

Many thanks for sharing it with us lad.

A smashing aerial image of this Oropendola and so beautifully captured.
 
Wonderful picture, I saw an Oropendola once right in front of the house where I lived (Brazil), can't forgive myself that I didn't have the camera with me :) well done with your capture, congratulations.
 
Here in Trinidad they are quite plentiful and can be found very easily. Yesterday about 50 flew by my house. Some consider them a pest.
