My first one ever, never seen them before, since they are not easy to find. They are a threatened species:

Hi Fabs, All the elements came together to make a very pleasing image.

Congrats on your first capture of this species. I like the open beak and the spread of the feet nicely captures the gangly legs of these guys. I also like the soft transition of colors in the BG.

Fabs, lovely pose with the open beak, and love the softer colours on him. I would maybe consider taking a bit off the top and bottom.

Congrats on getting a first ever! It looks like your boy has some jewelry (band) on his right leg. I may do something to the tops of the stick on the right as they look broken off, mayne clone cleanup?

Gorgeous bird and a wonderful capture. The background softness and colours show off the bird exceptionally well. Congratulations!
