Thanks Bob. I think it's more a case of sneaking up on them .. there is always a flock and the warning is given very early. They didn't spot me this time !

WOW! that is just really really good! The face looking at the camera is priceless. The water splashing all around very cool. Your patience and hard work really paid off in this one.
