Love how you caught the reflection of the bird's eye in the tiny pool. The dark streak through the head was bad luck.

Love it Mike. Loose comp is great as is the partial reflection. It would be easy to soften the dark line intersecting with the head. Would love to make it out to plum island one day.
Sweet shot, Mike. Love the light, and the reflected light. Also the fact that his attention is focused on something (a pebble? water drop?). Great low POV and sharpness (not always easy to find focus on such a little fuzzball). Fixing the dark patch might make it even better.
