Green Heron ( Kid)
Although not a great technical image , I found this one to be rather humorous in my view, In reality he is exercising his throat pouch, but it look as if he was annoyed at me and telling me "The flash is driving me crazy, Enough is enough" :wink: unfortunately the BG is rather busy, But Baby green herons love this type of habitat for protection!!!

Looks technically okay to me. Sandy should love this. Probably remind him of his "scoping" days

Alex I really like this one. It just makes me smile. Love the green BG and even the leaves in the FG. I especially like the wild lid. :lol:

Alex, this is one of your funniest shots. I wonder who removed his tonsils. Nothing wrong with the technicals. Even if there were, that mouth would trump all technicals. Great, great shot.

The facial expression is sooo capturing that the BG is really not distracting.

8) shot!

I like it that you got both eyes and the hair is killer.

Alex,

You certainly know how to provoke these intense reactions. I wish I had your magical charm.

What a mouth! Who cares about the background with that great big mouth wide open like that. Great catch.
