You have caught the wings in an interesting position here Judy as this Heron puts on the brakes - Lovely detail in the bird.

Great landing pose, details and light. You are so fortunate to have all those cooperative herons.

Terrific detail and the timing is spot on. A really nice capture.

Lovely stop action image Judy. I like like how the outstretched feet seem to anticipate contact with the nest.breath

[Michael Rosenbaum]

Very nice image, Judy. I love how the wings frame the head.

This is such a fine image, Judy! Well done. I suppose if I had to nit it at all, it would be the dark bg to the left. I might try to lighten it to bring out more separation, if possible?
