Such a cool setting, Jonathan. The water in the pond is rally pretty. The detail on the bird is fantastic; I just wish we could see a bird more of the subject. Same goes for the reflection. I looks like you had a bit too much lens in this instance. But what you did get is about as good as it could be! Might get rid of the second/lower catchlight in the eye.

The set up looks good to me. Nice to include the water. Framing is spot on. Neat patterns in the water.

Ditto Dorian's comments, but I'd be happy with this one! I really like the perch and the wispy water below. Killer BG.

like this one a lot Jon, pleasing elements in the image came together nicely. if mine I'd surgically repair the small dead spots in the leaves to freshen them up a bit
