Godwits Migration in December

In April, Humboldt County, California celebrates Godwit Days. Myriads of shore birds migrate to Humboldt Bay and perform ritualistic dances that are visible from the shore. I have photographed these displays  for several years and am still looking for the best way to capture their maneuvers short of resorting to video. This shot was taken with a telephoto lens mounted on a Canon 10D camera at 1/250 shutter speed on March 3, 2006. Slower shutter speed blurs the image.
