I like the head angle and eye contact. The pose is quite unusual. I would remove the dust spot at the top and wish the darker area behind the head were not there. Maybe a bit more room at the bottom?

Definetley a different pose for a GH. Great eye contact. I agree with Axel's comments.

Completely agree with Axel's assessment. I don't think I have ever seen a heron of any type sitting low on a large branch like this. Very unique.

I agree with the others and might also tone down the bright parts on the perch.

Hummm, seems like I've seen this somewhere??? I agree with the
CC above. Still a wonderful shot. Also Welcome to Bird Photographers.
I think you'll find the CC here a lot more critical, but very helpful.

Everyone, thanks for your comments . Don, I decided it was time I "played with the big boys" Critical comments are what i am seeking. Here is the repost with most of the suggested changes.

Way cool pose and a nice angle to the subject. This one might merit some bill cleanup.
