Good timing! Nice to see not one, but two birds landing simultaneously.

I also like how you framed these two in action!

I agree; very good timing and very nicely framed. Even though I live near the coast, I'm ashamed to say that I don't think I've ever seen a shelduck before, but I'm definitely going to look out for them now! They're beautiful birds with that distinctive red bill and chestnut patch.
