    Frank:
    Reds are one of my favorite birds, was my avatar for a long time here. Wonderful color harmony here, raised foot, soft bg. Wish the head a sliver more our way, but very nice as is!

    Was disappointed not to see many reds in Florida this year.

    Cheers

    Superb image! Lovely pose with a killer BG to go with the Egret. The more I look at it, the more I love this image. The walking pose by the Reddish is superb!

    A real beauty, Frank. The pose is wonderful with the raised foot, and the low POV is terrific. Bunche Beach rocks. Is that a large dust bunny above the bird's tail?
