Excellent, Allen. It’s catch is larger than what I usually see them with. Detail and reflection are very nice.

Nice Yellowlegs, Allen, I always enjoy watching this bird as it walks and stalks in the shallows. I like the even paleness of both the foreground and the background.

Allen: excellent detail in the bird and a nice reflection as well. While I like the foreground/background with its pale coloration, i think a high key of same would be a good option.

One of my favorite birds, Allen. I’ve never seen them actually grab something like this. Cool.
