Flamingos crossing each other.

This time there were around 500 Flamingos (migratory birds)at Ujani backwaters, Bhigwan, India. The groups were divided into two. Then these two crossed each other while the group was standing motionless. This pic was clicked from the boat ride. It was very difficult to get the awaited moment. I wish the little hurdles (ducks) were not around.
But it's always great to see the harmony in nature.
