I think you did well to represent that magical sunset session by the tidal pool with this image. The light is stunning!
The bird itself is beautifully sunlit and the exposure looks spot on. I see plenty of details and I think the vertical comp works alright.
I do wish for a lower shooting angle here, almost always yelds a better reslut and would have removed that line of mud near the head which is quite distracting now. I might also add a few points of black in selective color and adress the slightly yellowish whites.

This looks like it was taken at Bunche.
I wish you had been lower to get that mud BG out of the way.
Nice striding pose.
I would take a sliver off the bottom of the frame.

Would have gone lower and I think although it might level, it does not look like it...
Nice pose.

Gail already nailed it. Bunche Beach Ft Myers. Just south of the bridge to Sanibel on the mainland. Wonderful mudflats (got to get low tide during the usual golden hours) and at least one permanent beauty (the reddish egret white morph posted earlier). Thanks to all for comments/critiques. Always helpful to my improvement...
Peace,
David

I agree with the suggestions. I love the eye, and the water lifting around the front foot.
