This beautiful bird was feeding for quite a long time while I was nearby but I could never get an angle where I had a more photogenic backdrop.

You have captured the beauty of this lovely heron despite its lack of cooperation - well done.
I saw one recently when visiting Florida with my grandchildren, but, to my regret . did not have my telephoto due to limits on luggage. Ah well, maybe next time!

Sure looks good to me, love these herons and wish they'd come our way. Great job with the reflection. That background just makes the heron look prettier to me.
