Green Heron by bluemoon

Green Heron

I finally got up the nerve to send my camera off to the Nikon Repair Center. I was walking backwards and fell over a parking curb a while back and try as I might to avoid contact with the camera on the concrete it did hit the corner. The only damage I could see was scrapes to the L-Bracket but the camera has been kind of off so I sent it back. Fingers crossed it eventually gets back to me.

So anyway, I decided to dust off my previous camera and take it out to see if I could get used to it and while I was walking this Green Heron flew in front of me and into the tree for a split second. I can't believe how much I rely on "auto pilot" when shooting...today I had to search for every button and dial on the back up camera!

I love the details of its feathers

Such a nice closeup! I’ve been trying to get a Green Heron all summer with no success. Great work with your old tools.

Ouch! I have done that before, easily done. Hopefully the camera will be good as new again. This is a super looking bird.

What a great shot. I love the detail on his feathers. He doesn't look too happy in the tree does he fav

And there he was - all ready for action. You've been a great success with your old camera...

Dang Paula, hope you didn't hurt yourself when you fell. Hopefully, Nikon will send the Z9 back to you soon and be good as new. However, you certainly found the right buttons as this image is spot on. I don't think I've ever seen a Green Heron. Beautiful shot.

A Green Heron… amazing! You’ve made a lot of people happy as it seems to be a rare bird.

Look after yourself falls can make us feel a bit wobbly. You’ll have your camera back super quick I’m sure…

Wonderful capture and attention to detail…
