Dejected

Another capture of this this immature black crowned night heron (below, previous picture) looking dejected, probably because the ducks on the island didn’t want him around.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

Ah - he (or she) does look dejected. But at least it's a great picture. ~BV~

He looks lonely and sad but a good shot of him, Helen.V

An expression even Eeyore would have a hard time matching.
Great photo.

Yup it can be hard to make friends these days. Love the details on the feather and good focus on the eye.

Excellent sharp close-up image well titled Helen. It does look a bit dejected.

Probably the other birds are jealous on this beautiful Heron! Great shot V

Hopefully he'll be made more welcome before too long...

Another super photo of this young one. Hope he gets a meal somewhere soon.

Poor baby. He does look sad. You can tell him he looks beautiful in the great portrait you took of him. V
