CommentA flock of about 20 were feeding over the wetlands. Difficult to photograph as they fly very fast - by the time you lift the camera and lens to where they are in the sky they have moved on! I managed to get the odd one in the frame with even fewer sharp!

1/1000 sec at f/7.1, ISO 500
LocationMagazine Road Wetlands, Salisbury, South Australia
