One More Tricolor

Things have slowed down in Bayou Sauvage recently, but I got this image on Wednesday. I thought the higher angle worked because of the reflection. I didn't know it at the time, but when I was processing I noticed that the bird was looking directly at me. Shot full frame. Larger image included.

E-5 ZD300 F2.8 +EC-20 Wimberley I on GT2531, ISO 400 1/1000 f6.3 0.0EV

Beautiful background colors on top, and the reflection is great. I like the pose and the eye contact.
