I am not a big fan of b&w images of wildlife and fauna. However, there are times which present themselves for a b&w image. I converted this usiing Silver Efex Pro 2. Thanks for viewing and your comments.

The large version shows very nice detail. I think the b&w works well with this particular bird and setting.

Really nice reflection here Floyd. Love the look in the eye. This is a really good subject for the B&W treatment.

I like this a LOT. But I'm such a fan of the red-eyed birds, I'd keep the red eye here.
Very nice detail, great reflection, pose, and ripples.
Sweet!

Floyd, when I first looked at this I had the same thought as Sandy. I like the red eyes they have. But, this works and the reflection is very cool. I like the few ripples present too, it gives the impression of some motion.
