A classic composition with nice wind action on the feathers. It seems a little flat, especially the grass. Good detail on the feathers.

I like the windblown look of this, Peter.. Nice job on the exposure as well. While I like the grasses in the bg, I think a closer crop (maybe a 4x5 horizontal with a bit off both sides) might be more effective.

I actually like the light on this one. Nice composition. Good exposure on the shadows and highlights of the Egret. If I were going to make any changes I might cut a little bit off the left side
