Yellowlegs
Have been trying these most every morning the last several weeks. The water has been in a field I pass every morning. I stop to shoot a few. This is one of the better ones.
Sigma 50-500 1000mm eq f6.3 1/160 ISO 400 Cropped a bit and brightned some.

Nice shot. I like the reflection and the fact it isn't too messed up by the ripples. Good catch.

Nice find, Kendall. I like the ripples around the bird andthe reflection, but the bird looks a tad soft on my monitor and the BG is has quite a bit of distracting elements to overcome.
