Taken at Gatorland in Florida. I am sure it won't do well, but I thought the capture might amuse a few people. These water birds get so close to these massive alligators it's weird! Late in the day one of larger birds got snatched away by one of the big gators. Guess it was dinner time. :(
I wish this was a better composition, focused better and in not in the blazing sun, but you get what you get sometimes.
If you ever get to Kissimmee, FL, Gatorland this time of year is fun for nature/bird photographers! I love the place!
I sharpened, rotated, cropped and adjusted color and tones, using selective color and shadow highlight mostly.

This is a familiar sight where I live here in South Florida. I would have used a level adjustment to balance the light and dark. Maybe get more separation between aligator and water. Great shot though. Good, luck Mike
