Eyes Are To Big For His Belly
These Egrets still amaze me how they get these fish down,
I think this one has got a bit stuck!

Definitely prefer your last one but I still like this as his body position seems to reflect the struggle that he is having getting the fish down. Would be tempted to crop some dead space from the foreground which I'd probably balance by taking a little off the left. Very interesting shots though :toast:

great pose and behaviour, needs to be brighter i think, the white looks quite grey from here but may just be my monitor

Well captured :smile:
It does look like it's having trouble swallowing that fish.
Well done.
