Birds on a Wire

In the midwest, when we see birds on a wire, they are tiny common ones. In Florida, it's a whole new experience!
Lovely time today on a gray and misty one hanging out with family - birding and visit again to the Alligator Farm.
UPDATE 2/9/22: Based on a suggestion from @jgpittenger, I reworked the shot and think it is improved (not so gray, better compositionally without the bird on the far left): https://365project.org/taffy/365/2022-02-09

I like how the two on the right end seem to be having some sort of conversation. Such a great capture, Fav!

[Brigette]

Yes they are!

[Joanne Diochon]

I know, right? The first time I went to Florida I was so surprised to see the size of the birds just hanging out in the trees beside the highway.

Taffy I am in Bradenton Florida north of Sarasota. Would love to meet up if you are nearby.

[Taffy]

@brotherone That would have been so much fun, but I'm on the other coast, in St Augustine. I enjoy your photos and wish it could have worked out.

[gloria jones]

Super capture

[Jane Pittenger]

Delightful. What a find. I might like it even better with the one on far left cropped out

[Fixing a Hole]

@taffy ok. Too bad. Enjoy.

[Milanie]

Definitely not the usual ones!

[Rick]

Great shot. I'm thinking about getting a photography membership at the Alligator farm so I can get down when all of the birds arrive. If you happen to be going again, let me know.

[Danette Thompson]

As always, something “ordinary “ turned extraordinary!

[Lou Ann]

Awesome birds on a wire! So great in B&W.

[Taffy]

@rickster549 darn! I didn’t know they had this. We leave next Tuesday which is sadly coming up so quickly but I’ll let you know if I go again.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Awesome shot

[Taffy]

@jgpittenger I followed your advice -- posted it just now on 2/9, and improved the white/black balance as well.
