Quite well done and a nice bird to boot with the bright yellow lores. Like the COMP and the water. Wish only that the near wing were fully raised.
Tigertail?

Agree with Artie. Loving the whites in this one a lot, Don. Excellent angle of the bird and the shooting angle.
Another one with very nice light.
The head area is very sharp at 1/200.
I like the nice pose and how the bird appears to be wading through the water.
Well done.

Nice pose and excellent exposure control.
Actually that should be 2000 and yes Artie.The head area is very sharp at 1/200.
