Very nice, Darlene. I love the position of the Egret in the frame and the clean BG.

Good one Darlene, It is a unique pose, that opened wing makes it different. I like the composition and the background. (Sharp eye on this bird.)

Darlene, this is very nice, a tight crop around the wing and head would really put this over the top.

Best,

Chas
