    The cattle egrets continue to bring back nesting material. Hoping to see some chicks real soon.

    Hi George. Exposure looks pretty good, although I might tone down the whites a tad. Focus is sharp. Shadows on the wing and head are a bit distracting, as is the light spot behind the bill. There seems to be some haziness in the leaves above the head; it might be cloning artifact. I think the crop needs a little more room on the left. Love the water color, wing position, and the claws on the toes.

    The shadows on the face due to the wrong sun angle really hurt the image, George. Nice flight pose and those feet are great. Also there's some white OFF flowers right behind his face.
    Gatorland?

    Really like the wing position and the stick with leaves but as Fabs mentioned the sun angle really hurts! Image would have been awesome with good light.

    This is a great shot! I love the contour, the motion and the whole scene. I do, however, agree with the above comments regarding the picture needing just a bit better light to offset the bleaching effect on the wongs. Otherwise great shot and a joy to view!
