I captured this image a few days ago in Cape May, NJ on an overcast day with intermittent drizzle. This individual quite nicely ventured out from the tall marsh reeds into the open. C&C welcome.

D500, Nikon 500mm f/4G + 1.4 TC, 1/1000s, f 6.3, ISO 3200, Gitzo, Wimberley Gimbal head.

Removed some distracting twigs in cs6.

Geoffery, nice to see in the open. Needs a bit of counter clockwise rotation, nice details and colors in those conditions.

Great pose. A treat to get a clear shot of one of these guys. Conditions were tough but you made the best of it.

I love the raised foot and the almost down-the-barrel head angle. I can't see where you removed extra twigs, so that is a good thing.

Looking good Geoffrey. The details on the bird, make it stand out real well against its natural habitat. Very nice POV and I like the pose you captured on the bird.
