First, a silhouette view, against a mostly cloudy sky.
I was able to get on the other side of the bird, which did not move, and got a mottled leaf background. If I hadn’t seen him from the other angle I might have missed him.

Very nice!
Thanks!
You proved the point that angle, lighting, and background makes a difference! Nice, Ellen!
Thanks, Donna! And how sometimes we don’t get to choose! Glad that you liked them.
Interesting that we’ve still only seen one or two Green Herons in our usual spots this year. This was in Port Royal, SC.
