 Behind the Seoul Olympic stadium is a smallish mars land, and I knew there have been a few 'free' birds last time I went there. Luck on my side. No I do not know what they are playing with, must be something some of the hikers dropped/left/wasted.
Again, I hope you like it but for me it is a wonderful pic. After having spent 3 hours 'under cover' and in the sun between the cobwebs and insects, I have an emotional attachment to it.

6 - Good capture. Good detail in the whites/feathers, nice color retention. Criticism; spelling in the title and the title does not 'enhance' this shot as another may have - minor perhaps, but still, small details matter. Difficult, as obviously an opportune capture, but sharper, especially on the beaks/bills and 'both eyes' (the left one has a 'glint' which is good), make this even better in my opinion.
