I was at Lake Mirror in Lakeland, Florida this morning. Not much there right now but I captured this image of a Tri-colored Heron. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

I have always liked tri colors, very handsome. Well exposed, nice background. A bit tight in the frame for me, top and left exp. To my eye, some of the plumage looks over sharpened, esp. on the neck.
Joe I much prefer the more natural looking repost,suppose technically the Op is about right but I do feel the repost is more the way I see birds,but nice work on both.
