Hi Deerbird. I've hijacked Bill's User ID so that I can also make a comment. I had left the room and was returning, when I walked into this vision on the screen. Bill was still wiping the drool off his chin!! LOL! Both these birds are rare sights for us, and we haven't seen either in ages. That you caught both of them together in this amazing action shot is astonishing to us. Honestly...my jaw did literally drop! I've watched alongside Bill as he viewed thousands of shots on this site, and this is my all time favorite!!! Beautiful. TFS; Bill's wife.
 
You really excel at these action shot & as Bill's wife says this is right up there!!! Perfectly timed & composed, Ella!! tfs.
