A very fine shot. Really like how the chick and the parent are looking away from each other. Nice light and a pleasing
background. Nice overall details.

Connor, Very good job getting down to their level. Your camera must have been almost in the water.

Excellent shot! The different head angles balance the image nicely.

Everything is nice about this...even the water drop on the parent's head.

Awesome shot Connor. I like the unique angle shooting from behind the bird,rather than the typical side angle shot. Good eye.
Thanks for looking,

Connor this is lovely. F/8 was a perfect choice for a great DOF.
