This shot was created in April of this year. I really look forward to the time of year That the Reddish Egrets are in peak Plumage.

Great breeding colors and nice pose!
Might selectively tone down the BG a tad.

Hi Robert

I really like the birds pose and it is nice and sharp.
I am not to sure about the reflection of the bird with the head not really being visible. Not sure if I would keep it as is or crop into it.
Overall a lovely image.

I like the bird pose and the nice and clean BG. I think that the image works as is but you could also try a vertical crop. If this is almost full frame you should have enough pixels for that ,due to the D800 usage.

I like the pose, hunting behaviour and breeding colours. Nice image Robert.
