Jody, great job cloning out the fish line holding all these birds up.

WOW I tried getting these in flight once, I can appreciate the time you spent doing all of these, #12 is my favorite.

I thought maybe - just maybe - I could learn to shoot birds on the wing;- seeing these, I'm going out in the backyard and eat worms, then I'm going to bury the camera, and hide in a cave for ten years and sulk...

These are nothing short of fabulous!!

If I were to get one shot even close to these I'd be overjoyed.

What a brilliant series, Jody. Peafowl are about the size bird I like to photograph! These little suckers are impossible for us mere mortals.
