Wow, what a flock. I like that you caught several skimming at once in the first shot
Love the first one Kirk

Nice shots. That a bunch of Turns.
Thanks! I was glad to have seen that, I don't always get a chance to capture them skimming the water and the angle was good.
Thanks, Ira, it's my favorite.
Thank you, they are cool birds.
Thank you. they are closely related to terns, but yeah, it was a good size bunch. When I left that spot, I saw them all huddled together.
Nicely caught in flight Kirk, I seldom get more than one bird in focus!
thanks, Callie! same here, usually one at a time. Just as I walked into the area where a couple of other photographers were, one of them said, "Here they come again!" I looked in the direction they were looking and seeing the whole flock flying towards me looked awesome so I grabbed what I could with the 150-600 @ 150 mm.

Great story. I like how the birds all have different head positions toward the water!
Hope to see them soon, up close.
