Lovers' Quarrel @ Gatorland

[Marina Scarr]

These Great Egrets were having a little "spat" while working on their nest at sunset. It's encouraging to know we aren't the only creatures who have little disagreements. The behavior and habitat in this capture I feel tell a nice story. Thank you for looking.

Lovely warm light and nice action captured, Marina. The habitat works well but I would be tempted to remove the brown sticks in the upper left corner.

Very nice image Marina. It conveys fabulous interaction, I love those ruffled feathers on the head and neck. I don't mind the habitat around them at all.

Great light great moment well captured. Great work well done. Maybe a few hot areas but not distracting imo
