The only angles I could get were backlit and with some grass blowing in front of the heron. I still liked what I was seeing and hope you do as well.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

Life gave you lemons Morris, and you squeezed them into your glass and added sugar, heh.
I like the last shot where the sun lights up the colorful beak interior.

I like it, Morris.

Tough angle but sometimes it's that or nothing. I love what the backlight does to the translucent beak--really lights it up and makes that shot a little more special. You got some great poses in the other shots too!

Nicely done, Morris, with what you were presented.

#1 and 4 for me, though if I had to choose it would be the environmental shot.

Cheers

I like the grass. It lends an environmental element to the image.
