Fantastic Image.
The dark birds in grey background with the mist turning the foliage white make it look surreal. Almost like a design on fabric. One of those photos where things just "come together" !

Interesting image. How would it look as a stark high contrast black and white?

Thank you for saying 'surreal'. It is very satisfying to see that you chose a word which was playing in my mind when I was lucky to experience that setting :) .

Interesting suggestion, I considered this too.

Not the exact same composition, but here is a similar one where I did try it out.

IIRC, my thinking was that with those bright flowers filling 30% of the frame in the OP, the detail in the bright areas would grab all the attention, since I could not get my frame full of birds perfectly silhouetted against them. In the image below, OTOH, since I have more distant dark bg to work with, a high contrast BW does not cause the bg to interfere with the subjects.
