Just getting some sun on the edge of the island next to the observation platform at the Riverwalk Parkway in Riverside, CA. Toes in the water at times. Occasionally the bird would jump in, swim around and return to the same spot and sit still soaking up the sun.
Taken from the observation platform.
Hand held from about 30 feet in warm afternoon light at 2:57 PM, March 7, 2023. All processing in Lightroom Classic. This is a heavy crop.
