These Spoonbill shots are killing me. This one is another winner. You might take a hair off the top.

Nit-pick. Just a smidge more room at the bottom for the feet; they're a bit tight.

That said, SWEET image. Truly glorious light.

C'mon Rich, stop it. Estero has been good to you. The image is beautiful. For my tastes, I'd crop a bit from above and bring down the whites. By the time I'm able to get there, these guys probably will be gone.

Wow Rich this is a beauty. I've never seen a spoonbill with this color of background, it is quite nice. The light is so sweet! Looks like you're having fun in Florida.
