What an interesting shot! Love the reflection, like everyone else. That's a sheet of ice he's standing on?

@Bookfool: Thanks for the comment...It certainly is ice,but it didn't seem to bother the birds that much..Except when they were landing..

This bird is just gorgeous. The legs, the body, the beak ... the proportions are so unusual! The composition of your image gives it even more emphasis. To me, the clincher is the yellow reflection in the upper left. It balances and enhances this image so well. I applaud you. Bravo, Bravo!!!
