    Default Reddish Egret

    Taken at first light on Black Point Wildlife Drive, Merritt Island. At one point there were 3 Reddish Egrets chasing each other and jockeying for position at this one mud flat.
    It was relatively dry and this was one of a few areaa that had water.

    Silkypix RAW converter and Elements 10 for processing. Level adjustments, saturation and about 30% cropped.

    Thank you for looking and comments are appreciated.

    Lighting is excellent so is the detail and angle of the bird. So sharp well done.

    Hi Ramon, I really like the light in this, and you have timed the banking angle nicely. Love the detail and sharpness, together with the colours of the egret.
