Thanks. I did not really change the colors under his wings. He is a dusty blue body.

Here is a link of another that looks very similar.

Great shot, I've tried shooting ours Great Blue Herons without much success, but as mentioned, ours aren't quite this blue, more of a greyish blue.

Nice capture Lee. I shot one of these fellows taking off myself a few days back, the sky was overcast and I found my colors were a bit off and as I had left the tripod in the car trunk, a bit blurry too. Yours is better. Yvonne

I like the Blue Heron Lee but is the color off here? I know they are bluish but I didn't think they were that shade. I really like the colors in the water and the bird's reflection and if you cropped the bottom, it'd be nice to see more of that blue reflection. Just a thought! CJ

Very nice Lee. Such an elgant looking bird. The color and refection in the water does look great.

Thanks Jano. It is a blue heron, I think.
