Hi J Rajput  
Very nicely framed, with great control of the whites, eye contact and feather detail.

What @Peter_Morrissey said! Dramatic action but the soft light and BG set the scene that suggests the egret’s patient wait for a little snack.

Excellent job bringing out the details in the white plumage, Jagdeep. The pose is full of energy-you caught just the right moment.

Beautiful! Excellent detail, body position, color, exposure, and depth of field. I think it could use a very small amount of CCW rotation.
