A higher shutter speed would freezed the wings. Slightly more space at the right and less at the left would have strengthened the image, as the bird on the left is not completely included in the image. An even lower shutter speed to get a completely blurred image would have been also nice. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice image. Agree using a higher ISO to get more shutter speed would have been good. It seems the AF point was locked on the trees in the background. Were you using a single AF point or ALL point focus? While photographing birds in flight it is better to use all point focus. Thanks for sharing.
