I like the colourful details in the plumage and the bug really makes a positive difference. I am a little unsure over the half reflection, i think all or nothing would be better.

Lots to like here Bill. Nice pose, with raised leg and prey in bill. Great detail and excellent handling of tone and colour to my eye. The water looks great too with the green reflection and smooth surface. The stuff on the surface just in front of the bird is a bit unfortunate but the part refection helps draw some attention away from this, I think. I'd be inclined to tighten the composition a touch with a little off the left and top. A shot I'd be very happy with if it was mine.

Thanks Jonathan and Glenn. I agree about the reflection. Unfortunately, there was a bunch of exposed mud just below where I cropped, so there was no reflection beyond what shows here. I might have tried a pano crop with some off top and bottom.
