The days are growing shorter in the northern hemisphere. He might be planning a trip south?

I really like the light in the image. how about cropping a little from left till the thick branch and a little from the right?

Thanks "Deetheturk" David. I appreciate your kindness and taking the time to comment.

Hi Raj,
I believe I actually cropped it when I made a print close to what you suggested. Thanks. This is me being lazy and not doing so before posting.

Nice light and capture.

+1 to Bobo's comment. Love the light...though for me it will be extra interesting if you caught some eyelight on the bird...

[Shadowman]

Nicely done.

[Tom Barry]

Great atmosphere.

[terrib]

Beautiful shot.

It one of those lovely examples that you want to show people when you explain that photography is all about light.

I love everything about this image: Light, composition and colour.

Thank you Irene Eva, Donald "MacKenzie",Terri,Tom Barry, Shadowman,Izzie,Bobobird for all your kindness.

Bobo I'm wiping the sweat off my brow that my egret picture doesn't have to go up against your very excellent one of the egret with fish in its beak. I would lose. I generally don't photograph wildlife. I photograph people mostly, so I salute you.

Very nice light Peter. Although the crop might good look , I like the composition without cropping too. I don't like the watermark
