Rain Break

Yesterday was overcast in Seattle but no rain -- hooray. This Heron was waiting to have his picture taken so I took it :). Wishing you all a wonderful day.

[🐞Lucy Dolittle]

Lovely shot

A magnificent capture. Fav.

[Helen]

Great shot, like the way the light is catching his head

[Joyce]

He posed beautifully. Great capture Gloria

[Gabi]

Nice shot. Very good detail on the bird, including the sharpness in his eye. If you have a chance to take similar hot in the future, try to place the bird little off center, to make him overlook the scene in a way. It seems to give photos like this one really good balance.

[Fisher Family]

Beautiful heron! He really was posing - Lucy

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Great shot!

[Beryl Lloyd]

Great shot , but what a nonchalant look he's giving you -- quite a poser !

[Tina]

Beautiful creature, great capture. I like the way he balances on one leg.

[Paula W]

Great capture, he has a wonderful expression on his face.

[Lydia]

Impressive. Unless it's the angle of the photo, I think this GBH is a color variant!

It looks like your GBH has a "leucistic" color morph.
