GBH w /reflection
On one of my rainy day jaunts I caught this GBH. Like this one with the reflection. Wish I had got a bit more room around it.
7.1 1/250 ISO 800 674mm

Nice catch, Kendall. A cleaner BG would be ideal, but you don't have much choice in these matters. I like the inclusion of the reflection, which is not easy to keep in the frame with a bird this tall and lanky.

Nice comp, Kendall. I agree with Brian that the BG is a bit busy, especially the reflected branch that forms an "X" with its neck.

Nice work getting the entire reflection.
