Starlings at Sunset

I was taking photos of the marvellous colours at sunset this evening, when this small flock of starlings flew across the view!

The ridge line is about 3 miles away, hence the heavyweight lens in use.

Nikon D70 ,Sigma 80-400mm F4.5-5.6 APO EX DG OS
1/200s f/11.0 at 400.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
