I love how these guys dance and raise their wings to shade the water and catch fish. The dance looks so awkward but it is so effective for this species.

Beautiful image ! Perfect exposure, sharp with good detail, awesome low shooting angle and colours. A more traditional horizontal would work even nicer IMHO. Here is a repost with some crop off the top and bottom and some more canvas on the sides.
I think it needs a tiny CCW rotation.

Thanks Ofer!
I like your crop![]()
Like the re-post better but both work for me. You caught the head at the perfect time and I love the low angle.
I too love watching these birds. Your angle and action capture are perfect. Lovely b/g as well! Nice job!
Wonderful capture...Love the eye contact here...Crop in repost works for me...
lovely capture and nice exposure of whites
beautiful pose with nice eye contact....love the water around his legs!

great pose and light with nice details. Did you desaturated the red channel? Since the eye looks a bit dull (egret's eye should look yellow in this light) and I would expected warmer whites given the light condition.

Great exposure, sharpness, angle. I love behavior images!
Great timing to capture this pose Cheryl, just love the umbrella effect. Good low angle, well exposed and sharp. Great HA too.
Great shot, I very much like what Ofer did with your shot! The pose is excellent and the low angle makes this special!
