Striated heron

Striated heron (Butorides striata)

an early visit to the shore, resulted in many unusable high iso shots, only when the sun was up enough could get this shot, then i had to leave.
it was so busy in the beach, a nice active kingfisher, a pair of cormorants, many types herons as well as many little waders.

hope you like it.

Sounds as if another trip to the beach is warranted Doux. Fabulous close-up of this beautiful heron. TFS!

Letting the highlights burn out and exposing for the bird works really well here. The bird looks almost three dimensional. Very nice!
