Black Skimmer among shorebirds - Snake Bight, Everglades National Park (yesterday)

          Today was uneventful as I spent the day cleaning all the mud off of everything I took with me yesterday to photograph the Flamingos. My tripod had been submerged all the way to the top joints in water and to the middle joints in mud. Basically I spent the day working around the trailer trying to get things clean and in order.
          This is an image from yesterday that I thought I would include today. I was trying to convey the chaos of the birds as they were all fighting for high ground. I tried some images where the flying birds were blurred and others where the birds were frozen. I still am undecided on this image but thought I would put it out there for comment. Please leave your thoughts in the forums.
