Juvi White Ibis

[Mike Tracy]

These guys are so prevalent around here I never took the time to notice they are actually quite handsome.

I think they are much better looking birds as juvys. Anyway, great low profile and a lovely colored/blurred bg. Should you have left a little more room on the bottom for the virtual legs? Or would the oof foreground be too much if you did? Beautiful capture!

[Ramon M. Casares]

Quite? I love these birds! Nice image, great pose, nice light, nice BG, excellent detail and colors and good comp although I wouls crop a tad from the right.
Congratulations!

I like the walking pose, angle, BG and eye contact. More room for the 'virtual legs' might have been good but I don't know what the water in front of the bird looked like.

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Great BG and pose Mike. Like this a lot. A bit more room below for me too. :)

[Fabs Forns]

Nice pose and good specimen. Agree on cropping off the right and I find the reflection in the water very distracting. Thanks for sharing, Mike.

[Ilija Dukovski]

The HA and the raised leg combo make it very interesting pose.
Very cool bird. I like it!

[Harshad Barve]

Gorgeous image and bird, he almost looks innocent. Tack sharp and BG great. I also vote for some room underneath. Congrats.

Super pose captured, sharp and an excellent BG, a bit more room below as you may have amputated the foot. congrats on a good image...

[Sinh Nhut Nguyen]

Very nice background, lighting and detail. The low angle really enhances this image.
