Snowy ballet

[Indrek]

Normally snowy egrets catch fish while wading. This one did some ballet moves as it caught fish while flying.

Nice shot

The snowies I see in Florida fish while flying around
I rarely see them wading

Terrific image. I did a whole project several years ago on egrets in ballet positions. Starting to redo it.
I love to watch them dance.
Thanks for sharing

Nice shot!

Nice shot - sharp, good processing, good composition. It is too tight on the bird for me. But person you did not crop and can't make a change.

Thanks for the feedback. The shot was taken in landscape mode, but I did not like the empty space at the sides, so I decided to crop to portrait orientation. While that resulted in a tight crop, I felt it looked better than leaving it in Landscape orientation.

You caught an interesting position to be sure. Love the flowing feathers on the head and the water drops. Well done.
