Well done Ron! Avocets are one of my favorite birds. They are not easy to capture in flight.

Thanks Larry. I am quite impressed with this Sigma 18-250mm HSM Macro lens. If the subject is close enough then the lens does really well IMO.

FWIW: The first image in the OP has been manipulated in post. The two birds were too far away from each other to make a good looking crop. So, I just cloned the front bird closer to the back bird then made my crop.

Cheers.

Ron

Very nice!

Thanks.

Is that the latest 18-250 Sigma?

Yes it is.

Sigma 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 DC Macro HSM

Make sure you do not get the OS version.

Ron

Thanks a lot Ron
