Hi All,

My first post in this forum - just found the site this morning! Taken at the Venice Rookery 12/27 right at sunset.

Thanks for looking.

Best,

Jose

Jose,

well captured behavioral image. If birds legs are also visible it would have been even better. may be a little more space at bottom?

This is a very striking image. The black background really sets the Heron off.

I agree as was previously stated, the only thing that distracts from the image is the fact you have the foliage covering the lower leg and tail of the heron... Still a very striking image, well done :)
