This snowy egret pair were taking an afternoon rest near a lake when I captured their image. Any commentary is appreciated

The image posted and the "larger" version are the same size and just too small to see enough details to provide any meaningful feedback.

I don't know what went wrong with the post, Ry, but this image is pretty tiny as posted. Hard to do much analysis, though I like the composition.

Nice look at the egrets in their habitat and the plumage shows well, but the eye could be a bit sharper.

Ry:
Looks like in your larger post you may have just used the original small image and increased the size? I ask because the overall image quality isn't very good. The image is very soft in focus. The whites on the birds that are in the sun are lost due to overexposure. I don't know what your original raw file looks like, but I'd go back to the starting point and reprocess to see about recovering some detail and see if it is sharper.
