    This an image from a series I took Oct last year. I still have a few great captures from that weekend that I think are worthy of working on.

    I like the reflection, I wish the bill was showing more, but not a deal-breaker for me. Great pastel tones.

    Nice pose and "feel". Is the green band just behind the beak vegetation picked up from the water or is it the bird's color?

    Good feeding pose, and lovely pale colours. Looks like you were in a great spot! The reflection looks good, I guess you could give it a bit more room below as the tail tip is close to the bottom edge.
