Dark morph of the Eastern Reef Egret (Egretta sacra) hunting on the rocks. Dark morph is more common in my area, the white morph looks like other white egrets, except for the shortish legs.

ISO500, 303mm, f6.3, 1/1250, by Sony.

Nice pose with raised foot for added interest, sweet detail and set off very nicely with the ocean background, Greg.

gregc, Nice detail throughout and the rock is interesting looking. The bg adds to the image. Good job.
