Who stuck the pose better, the #GreenHeron or the #GreatBlueHeron? I vote both!

June 2026 in Elgin, IL (Hawthorne Hill NC) #birds

Wings drift through quiet stillness.
Water rests in gentle calm.
Soft motion carries silence forward.
Light glides with tender ease.
Nature offers peace in every breath.

A #GreatBlueHeron getting ready to take off from a branch high on a dead tree for Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme of #BirdsInAbstract from motion blur, obscure angles, or contrasting textures.

For Helen’s interesting #BirdOfTheDay theme of #BirdsInAbstract I offer this close up of a preening #GreatBlueHeron. I loved the colors and the textures. I’m looking forward to seeing what others do with this theme! #birds #WildlifePhotography #ECK

Great blue heron! They were stalking through algae and duckweed for fish and frogs. I love their yellow eyes. 📸🦌🌿

Great Blue Heron

Feathers settle through gentle silence.
Motion drifts into calm balance.
Water folds around the quiet descent.
Soft reflections gather beneath each shift.
Silence moves with gentle rhythm.

Great Blue Heron and Willets

Wings rise in sweeping motion.
Water carries echoes of gentle flight.
Shoreline shifts with passing rhythm.
Moments move freely through open space.
Nature dances in flowing harmony.

Great Blue Heron

The air moves with a quiet sense of calm.
The land gathers its gentle breath.
Stillness rises through the soft sweep of motion.
Each moment carries a tender hush.
Nature leads without words only wonder.
