I haven't had much luck in avian the last few months, so thought I'd bring this one in from my trip in February. Shot at the lagoon on the far end of North Beach. Full frame, larger image included.

E-5 ZD300 F2.8 + EC-20 Wimberley I, ISO 400 1/4000 f5.7 -0.3EV

Excellent shot, I like the lower perspective and very nice detail on the larger image, they are such a colorful heron, way to go.
