The light is beautiful and what a great wing extension.
I just wish you had a lower POV as I find the horizontal ripples distracting and it looks like there was a great BG of grasses judging by the reflection at the top of the frame,

PS I think I see some cloning artifacts in the water on RHS?

I agree 100% with Gail, great wing stretch, but a lower POV would have really taken this over the top.

yes but shooting from boardwalk can not get lower

The image in my view is stunning and the birds leaps out of the background so much so to make the background almost unobservable.
