Jake, great angle to get a good look at their namesake bill, very nice feather details and colors on this this bird. There's something about the bird being pink, along with the rings and bits of pinkish plant matter on top of the water that makes the reflection seem dreamy and fairytale-like.

Cinderella shall go to the ball! Such crazy birds in their baby pink ball gowns. You have captured superb detail here, Jake and the complementary colours in the surrounding habitat are the icing on the cake.
