Early morning light, Roseate Spoonbill fledgling.
Fledgling Roseate Spoonbills differ from the adults in these ways:
Fledglings have black eyes, adults have red eyes.
Fledglings have feathers on their head, adults do not.
Fledglings have light blue lores.
Fledglings have black tips on some of their primary feathers.
Fledglings are white and pastel pink, adults are primarily white and red with orange and yellow parts.

Oh my gosh, I love this one. Such sweetness! Keep this up and I'll be back by weeks end.:)
Piece of art. Love everything about it. It is really nice to see you posting again, James. Your work is truly remarkable.
Wonderful image James, beautifully composed and I just love the contrast between the subject and the blue water. Since this is a critique site I did notice the white area above the shoulder is a tad hot with the red channel showing a reading of 255.
James, You've captured something really nice. Fine job.

Blue compliments Pink so well. It has the calming effect. What an awesome image to view.
The light on this one is awesome. Gives the bird a real special look. Everything came together great on this shot. Cant stop looking at it! Well done.
This is one magic image,light is pure magic,great expose,nice pose,sharp with good detail.TFS.
Wow, great image James. All you need is wall space and a frame.
Just lovely James in many respects, such lovely soft quality of light and sharp detail, I very much like the way/mood in which you have captured the eye, it has the look of total innocence as a juvenile or child would portray...sweet as sir ! The satin water texture works in nicely and it blends into the backdrop beautifully. The only slight possible room for improvement may be the hotter white region in front of the wing...but it's maybe just my monitor and hardly detracts from the other stunning qualities in this one.....it has me mesmerized
James:
A knockout! Sweet as can be, lovely light, water, pose.
I do agree about the whites going a bit hot on the shoulder with the posted image.
Marvelous.
Cheers

I like the pose, IQ, calm water and composition. Beautiful image James!
Absolutely gorgeous all the way through.
Love the soft colours and the pose is so sweet!
There is a severeness to this image which I really like. The pinks and blues go so well together. Love the feel of this one.
i looked at it , again looked at it and still looking at it
just cant take my eyes of this one, every thing looks so perfect
Wonderful work
Nice composition and excellent exposure control and sharpness.
This is simply beautiful. Such a gorgeous subject and you captured him/her perfectly. I would hang this on the wall!
