"FOLIES BERGERE" - Great Blue Heron
"FOLIES BERGERE"
Great Blue Heron
Walking back from photographing young ospreys, spotted this Great Blue Heron relaxing and grooming in a tall tree.
Having managed to gradually work my way through the shrubbery and into the woods, achieved some close-ups of a content heron enjoying a late summer's day in the treetops. The photography was shot in the shade but with the afternoon sunlight coming in onto the heron and diffused through the trees and leaves.
It was enjoying a stretch prior to flying but with all its underside feathers revealed, it appeared to be something out of a Paris cabaret.
