Photo: a great blue heron flying against a blurred backdrop of black and green (out of focus pine trees), the heron is center frame, flying toward the setting sun so the front feathers in its outstretched wings are lit, along with its beak and chest, revealing chestnut highlights and one bright yellow eye, you can see how it keeps its long neck folded up for flight in an S-shape

Photo: a great blue heron is wading in a pool of water, with grasses and reeds in the background, you’re looking from behind it just after it’s snatched some kinda water bug in its orange and yellow beak, it has a dark blue cap with a kind of tassel and a periwinkle smudge beneath its eye
