I agree about the exposure and the breeding colors, Jerry, plus very nice detail.

Nice pose, Jerry. Exposure and detail look right on to me. The angle is a little steeper than ideal, but that can't be helped. If it were me, I might have removed the branch in post processing, but I'm not sure. I like it as a branch, but it plocks the Egret's view.

Nice Jerry. The branch over the top does not bother me.

Jerry,
Sweet breeding colors you've captured here on this image. As Richard stated, the exposure is perfect. Great head turn for a look at the lore. I can live with the branch in or out of the image. Does not bother me but wouldn't mind seeing what it looked like removed.
