A roseatte spoonbill wades through the watersvagaing for food while four woodstorks seemingly follow behind. This was a hard one to crop, so I'm not 100% happy with the crop.

Nice shot! Looks like it would be a challenge to crop.

Good shot.....

Nice shot! I don't mind the crop, and it doesn't jar me out of the picture. With that many birds it flows naturally to my eye. Also, the gap between the last woodstork gives the entire scene some space. Tough crop but IMHO it works.

Thank you, Mitch. I suppose I could've left out the very last wood stork and it would've worked better.
