From the Air*

Fur Island, Washington

I know I was standing in a field when I took this shot but to me it looks like I'm flying along side these birds. The white ones are Trumpeter Swans and the dark ones are Canadian Geese.

Fantastic Ann! I love the way the lighter birds are against the darker background and the darker birds are against the lighter background! ~ Lonnit

Ann, love the perspective, would like to get even a little closer.

Fantastic and rare capture Ann. It does like you are flying with them, and two different types of flocks too. Susan

Beautiful image, Ann. I would have cloned out the antennas and the bird's wing that are just barely visible in the bottom edge, very minor flaws.

Almost looks like you were in an ultralight following them!

Wow Ann - great shot. Definately a birds eye view!
