Juvenile black crowned night heron in habitat

Found this youngster at a local park fishing in the water washed pushed up from a very high tide.

Nice colors, detail and eye contact. Light is very good. I would clone out the OOF branches in FG. Also IMO there is too much space above the bird, a tighter crop will put more emphasis on the BCNH yet show plenty of habitat.

Nice image all around.
We have tons of these guys out and about now.

Grace, Beautiful habitat image w/ nice lighting. I like the details and the pose. I might be tempted to tone down the dark area on top left just a bit. I like your placement in the frame. Nicely done.

I like the habitat and you composed it well. Good detail on the bird, especially the eye. I might be tempted to crop off some of the top.
