Great colour and sharpness in the heron. I also quite like the habitat around the bird with the green grass and flower heads, it works well. My only nit is the birch tree sticking out the back of the heron, it is bit too dominant in the shot for my taste. Next time move to the right by 2 feet
Really nice quality and a most attractive and interesting setting.Real shame about the light coloured tree behind the bird which IMHO spoils what would have been a cracking shot.
A great setting and makes for a more unusual heron shot. However, I'm sorry to say that the tree growing out of the heron's back is too much of a distraction for me. A really good attempt though and I wish the heron would take one more step

I assume this is a breeding male given the very strong pink flush to the bill?

Very nice - certainly answered my question re getting the whole bird in a natural looking setting!

I agree about the birch, but a good capture none the less.
Best wishes

Good sharp heron in a setting that works well. As said before the tree is too dominant though. I would like to get this close though.

Nice shot in beautiful setting
