Very beautiful. Love that BG sky. The position and in this viewing box, this presents perfectly. I like the angle of head. The eye and beak are perfect. Love that straight line from eye to tip of beak. This is cute! I am so happy to be at your zoo! I cannot ever get to my zoo in Portland, Or. Detailed, focused and clean photo, so well done, once again!

A great portait of this blue heron, like the details and textures you have captured along with great colors and the clear blue sky sets these off, a pleasure to look at, thank you for sharing, dale

OUTSTANDING capture taken with Superb camera settings. Focus, white balance, captured pose with her eye half open, bowed pose, breeding plume blowing in the breeze and fine use of natural light...all working here!!
Bravo Shadow.
