    Summer is on his end and sone Fall will come witch means that a lot of birds will start migrating again and the wonderfull summer plumage will fade.

    Hi Alexander,
    Great looking bird and very nice colors. I think the crop is a little tight.

    Fantastic reflection. Great colors though the whites look a bit hot here. There is some distracting debris above its bill and butt. JR

    As you said, migration is peaking up, very nice numbers of storks in Israel those last few days.
    And, more & more migrating / wintering birds around.
    Wondeful image with a great reflection.
    Agree with John about the distracting debris.

    Yes to a bit more room all around and better control of the whites. Killer-good bird, pose, REFL, and SH. Getting rid of the small bits of debris is pretty much child's play if you choose to lose it.
