Interesting reading your comments on yesterday's image... and seeing the way your minds work... ;)

Here's the thing... or at least the thing that struck me...

At first glance the bird (it's an Egret incidentally) appears to be flying towards the camera... doesn't it?

But look closely at the bird... and particularly the bird's reflection...

Perhaps this will help

I hope you can see the bird is flying away from the camera, but the angle the bird is holding its legs and feet make them look like a beak when the bird is in flight and viewed from the back... stuck me as being quite peculiar. :roll:

Okay, I'll just get my coat...
