Beautifully captured Noelle. I struggle with this type of shot where the body is facing the opposite of the head - I never know where to put the "extra" space. For me, there is too much space on the right, but the burd is excellent ~ Ron
Thanks Ron, IMO the extra space should always be where the bird is looking

wow, you have egrets already. I guess a trip south is in order for me. I love the details, plenty there for a tighter crop like Troy suggested.
Very very nice Noelle. I like the composition of your photo because, as you say, it brings in more of the environment that would be otherwise lost by a tighter crop. Thanks for sharing. ~ John
Beautiful shot Noelle, you did an excellent job on the exposure. The bird stands out from the environment nicely but the environment still has enough presence to add its own ambiance to the image.
A very lovely shot Noelle. I like the extra space around him/her. The rule of thirds is perfect and you left space for the face in the way his/her head is turned. Heck makes you feel like I'm there. Perfect Young Lady!
