No crop! Just total luck while waiting a CSX Intermodal!

Unless you cropped this, this is actually an odd sight. seeing a complete even V is rare because the birds change leaders. The lead bird is always breaking the air, while the ones behind are tucked partly into the draft of the one ahead. Like following a semi, or how nascar drivers do. So eventually the lead bird gets tired and another ends up in thr lead, meaning the lopsided V is more common.
Regardless of my lesson in useless facts, Nice shot.

I saw them flying over Bedford Park and the BRC, I was shooting CSX and they came right over me...I thought freaking amazing. Set the telephoto and snap/snap!
