I really like this Wade, love how well the egrets bright white plumage contrast with his surroundings. Good pose and excellent composition.

Really good clarity and detail. A calm and natural pose makes for a nice study of the bird-- the details of the field marks, etc. Looks like nice, even light, too, for this brilliantly white bird-- an important feature contributing to the beauty of the photo. Not too keen on the large angular rock in the bg, as it is so different, and darker, that all the other shapes. Not an image-breaker, though, Wade. I think this is a very good image.
