Description

I consider this a landscape even though it has critters in it. I wanted to show the great number and diversity of birds in this pond. I made sure the lines of birds went edge to edge on the top and bottom to make it feel like there were an infinite number of birds. I wanted to get the nice white layers of birds and the great reflections so I walked around the pond until I found a view where the birds seemed to be organized into neat rows, making for nice repititions. BTW there is a Roseatte Spoo
