Nice shot. I love the coloring, how the background reflection compliments the color of the Avocet. I really like those birds.

A very pretty image!
Just for purely beautiful color, but also a surprisingly beautiful bird.
Angky.

The background goes well with the bird's colors. What a beautiful bill he has. Great picture.

Thanks, the colours worked out great. Sun was setting behind me but still lots of blue sky and the reeds in behind reflecting orange to match the avocet.

Thanks, they are beautiful birds and the sunset colours reflecting off the yellow reeds made a nice orange to match the avocet.

Thanks, they are beautiful and the longer I sat there the closer they would come. Sunset was perfect too.
