This wasn’t a full flight, just a short hop across shallow water that was draining as the tide went out.
Maybe that’s why this young Great Blue Heron didn’t bother with much lift and then dragged his toes on his landing.

Perfect timing !!!
Thanks! Just before he went behind a tree!
I am pretty sure that he gets a points deduction for not sticking the landing. 🙂 Wonderful shot!
Ha ha, that and he was chasing a Little Blue to try to steal his lunch, rather than catch his own. Thanks, Mike!
Gorgeous! You pressed the button at the right moment Ellen, not always easy.
Thanks, Greta! I know, they aren’t always so predictable in their movements. Continuous high speed shooting is a help.
Nice shot!
Thanks, Liz!
