Good sharp focus, Stuart. Nice to have the nesting material and I like the shadow of the head and stick on the far wing. I would crop a chunk from above to create a pano with the heron flying near the upper third.

Stuart:

Tony covered it well. I might consider a reverse S curve adjustment to reduce the contrast a bit, fairly harsh light. You might be able to bring up the legs just a bit as well.l

Cheers
