    This bird tends to be a shy and stay in the swamp's and never come out. but it was a lucky day i got him perch near the water body, the water passing towards the fields for fishing as the water coming from the lake directly ...

    C&C welcome

    I like the sharpness, composition and BG and wish for a bit more head turn towards you. Is he standing on a concrete block? The bird reminds me a bit of the green herons around here, interesting to see the differences.

    I feel as if the image is a bit flat, perhaps some better light or a bit of fill flash might have helped, but I don't it that would be permitted, or even if the shy bird would have tolerated it.

    Like the details Mital, wish for a more natural perch, maybe if you could have gone lower, shallow angle would have helped minimize the platform.
