During my last day at Little Estero Lagoon the light was perfect and birds not far behind. Had lots of chances for landing egrets. This image has had little processing other than slight curves, dust spot and 5% crop. No shadow/highlight or sharpening, the area around the bill in the original raw is 100% as it shows in this image.

Comments welcome and much appreciated

Outstanding job Alfred. The pose couldn´t be better and the yellow feets agains the deep blue are really nice. of course the waves on the water are a big bonus. Tremenda!
