Very nice capture, Jake. I was there six years ago and it's a very nice place.

Very good action, Jake. I like the flight position of the Egret and the nesting material in the bill. Beautiful color and good exposure. One very minor suggestion would be to add a little canvas at the bottom so the bird’s foot does not merge with the edge of the image. Overall, very nice!

Jake, Superb details and excellent processing of the whites. These are somewhat slow flying birds, not sure why you would want a shutter speed of 1/6400?

A shame about the clipped toe - but that is one long bird to get in frame!  :)

That's my only nit in an otherwise very nice capture, Jake.
