I agree with Jimbob Patti, First thought that came to my mind was the movie "The Birds".
This is a wonderful action shot and so clear.
Great focusing.sandi♥

So how many of them had a successful audition for the remake of the Birds Patti? They all look like maybe they got supporting roles. Excellent action photo.

I caught myself trying to count them, but I don't have enough time to do that and run for cover. Beautiful image and the clarity is super. I love this one.

Well done! Lots of different focal distances, all at high speed, and they've come out quite clear. Not an easy shot at all. They all seem to be homing in on the same spot. Kudos!

Please, even if you don't visit my gallery, check out my "Faves".I've left them intact since day "1", and would like it if every image there got the attention they deserved.

OMG, they really do swoop in. They present a good argument for not eating in public. I think they'd steal a sandwich mid bite!! LOL. Great shot, Patti.

I've heard that birds don't poop while they are airborne, Patti. Judging from this image you might just be able to verify that. Nice fun image -
