Excellent, Sandy. Great to get all the eyes and I like the variety of poses in the juvies. To my eye, it looks like you could go just a bit brighter in the whites.

Nicely composed habitat scene. I like the varied poses of the young egrets. The eyes seem a tad oversaturated.

Hey Sandy,
Well composed with all the elements perfectly placed in the image. Excellent habitat which shows the environment nicely without being too busy which is hard to achieve in an Egret rookery. The large version is very impressive with excellent detail and the colors look just fine on my monitor. The image really POPS and you nailed the whites in the feathers.
Well done . . .

Great family shot Sandy. You captured them in a really nice grouping that shows each bird well. And they all seem to be in sharp focus. Well done!

Sandy: excellent shot of the juveniles and adult captured at the moment when the eyes of all 4 birds are visible. The various poses of the juveniles are a treat to see. Whites are well controlled. Congrats! Richard

Great job getting a good look at all three of the juvies, Sandy. Nice job getting them all in focus. You did a really good job controlling the whites.
