We may be able to record the sky in its many moods, but birds leave us in the shade when it comes to that most sky-full of activities flight.
This mixed flock of wader caught my eye a while ago - and I thought I see what it looks like in Black and White (what a silly name - but it does sound better than Shades of Grey!)
You can find more sky shots at SkyWatch Friday.
Enjoy the skies.

Its a wonderful sight when birds take flight all at the same time and darken the skies with their silhouettes.
Love this shot in black and white, Stewart.
A great sight indeed and a terrific capture! Have a great weekend, Stewart!
cool shot in b&w. :)
LOVE it!
Great shot! Wonderful to capture them in a flock as they take off.
Being so used to the magic of easily available colour, we forget the artistry that B&W offers.
In this case, it gives a great deal of extra depth.
Sheer photographic poetry.
I envy you your sky. :)
But I did see the first pair of Common Goldeneye today. :)
Wow - fabulous shot!
This is awesome! The b&w let's me focus on the bird action without getting distracted by color. Love it!
Nice shot Stewart! I really like the black & white!
Exellent shot Stewart!Great B/W!Have a lovely weekend!
Dimi..
a great 'action' shot Stewart, against the grey sky
Fantastic shot, and even better in B&W!
My kind of sky, filled with birds. Great capture, Stewart! I hope you are surviving the heatwave there. Have a happy weekend!
Great capture.

Love this in the black and white!
Maybe one of these days I will be able to get a shot like this. In the meantime I will just have to look at yours and others and be envious. Great shot. genie
What a terrific flight shot Stewart, and I really like it in B&W,
Love this capture! Actually it is shades of grey, isn't it:)
Flock flying is just festive!
Just love this picture. Findlay told me to have a look and I am so glad I did.
Wow! Great shot! This is fantastic.
A frame full of feathered friends. I tend to ignore b&w on my camera, maybe I should get out of my comfort zone!
Fantastic shot, Stewart! I'm a big fan of B&W and this is really nice!
Nice shot, and in my opinion the black and white adds an element of mystery that makes it "wall worthy."
What a beautiful shot! I love the photographs on this blog.
