I happened across this Great Blue Heron in the late afternoon. It was unaffected by my presence and continued to leisurely preen its beautiful feathers. i am always happy to photograph GBH's. Maybe the next one will be in flight!

This was captured at a great moment. The details of the bird can be easily seen, the background is homogenous.   Posted: 07/10/2024 13:32:52

I admit, Kathleen! They are beautiful with their feathers. Great to see how they are landing, every feather spreading far away. Big shot!   Posted: 07/10/2024 14:57:44

Beautiful capture. Great texture and pose. I like the plain background - I can see this printed and hanging on a wall.   Posted: 07/27/2024 00:27:01
