Great capture Paul and so well spotted. You framed the plane to perfection, just in the right place. Everyone is flying off to warmer places. Bad sign!! This is brilliant Paul.

I like it Paul, whether by design or happenstance it matters not, the result is great with apparently both birds and aircraft flying off together to warmer climes, its excellent mate.

Thanks Dave, When I took that shot it was a warm day, today I would love to in the plane.

Thanks Steve, to be honest it was not till I got home did I see the plane. What I did like was they are all going the same direction, and there was a hole in the group to see the plane.

Great shot. Most pictures like that are being in the right place at the right time. But they last a lifetime.

I love these "one in a million" shots. They are just perfect if you get the timing right and you sure got lucky! I sat and debated for a few minutes if I liked the plane in the photo or if it took away from the feathery subjects, but after much thought I think it adds a certain realistic feel to it that I have grown to appriciate
