I made this image in Florida last week.

Nikon D850, Nikon AF-S Nikkor 300mm f/4E PF ED VR
1/8000 sec; f/5.6; ISO 160
Manual; Matrix metering

Nik Color Effect Pro Filter, Pro and Tonal Contrast
Luminar Flex Golden Light Filter


Let me know what you guys think about it.

Thanks
Krishna

The quality of the silhouette itself is beautiful. I especially like the feather fringing along much of the contour. The cut bill is rather unfortunate though. Is this a FF image?

I agree and understand the same now.

I think it is little blue heron, not snowy egret

I would bet on Snowy Egret with the thin bill. I have been wrong before ... Go to the RAW file and lighten it and LMK :)

Agree with Daniel. Very nice silhouette. Would have liked to see the whole birds bill.

I think this is Little Blue heron.

OK, for a third try, I think it's a tri-colored. Light chin, looks like breeding lores/eye and the classic tuft feathers.

Thanks for lightening it. I was wrong but so were you :) David is correct; it is clearly a Tricolored Heron. The bill of LBH is much thicker.
