Thanks to the fellow photographer who tipped me off to this location.
A great opportunity to shoot Great Blue Herons. This is a popular fishing site, so the heron is somewhat accustomed to people.
I used Photoshop, with a bit of Topaz AI Noise, and AI Sharpen, and a small crop, too.

Excellent shot of the Great Blue Heron in flight! The background really makes the heron and the photo stand out. Nicely done!

Thanks. Steve. Glad you liked it!

Wow! Another tack-sharp GBH with a nice soft background. These are great!!
I believe the first one is the better of the two.
It's pouring the rain here in Central KY tonight, so I may try to go to this site tomorrow and see if anything develops...
