Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron portrait during sunrise at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this horizontal color photograph, a great blue heron is silhouetted in left profile in the right half of the frame as it perches on a branch extending from a submerged tree. The background is a silhouetted shoreline, while out-of-focus cattails and reeds in the foreground frame the heron and add depth and context to the scene. The pond water reflects the golden-orange hues of the rising sun, helping define the symmetrical ripples flowing across the surface. A beautiful portrait of a great blue heron relying on the wetland habitat so vital to its survival.

Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron angrily squawks at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, a great blue heron fills the frame in right profile, its beak wide open as it lets out an angry squawk while perched on a large stump above the water. The heron’s backend is cropped from the photograph, creating a tight portrait that focuses attention on its head, neck, and expressive open beak. The background consists of softly blurred pond water and the opposite shoreline, lined with vegetation and large trees. In the foreground, the top of the stump and several cattail leaves jut upward into the frame. A beautiful and dramatic moment of a great blue heron at sunrise in a wetland habitat so vital to its survival.

Photo by Kort Duce A common grackle is lost within an abstract formation of exposed tree roots from a fallen tree at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this horizontal color photograph, a grackle appears just left of center in left profile, momentarily pausing as it navigates the wooded jungle gym of exposed roots. The intricate root system twists and extends in every direction, creating a fascinating maze of abstract shapes. The grackle's iridescent head mirrors the deep blue of the pond water visible through openings in the roots, beautifully blending the bird into its surroundings. A beautiful artistic photograph of a common grackle navigating the intricate structure of its wetland habitat, a vital ecosystem for its existence and that of countless other birds and wildlife.

An American white pelican relaxes and preens at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado.

Photo by Kort Duce An American white pelican relaxes and preens at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, a pelican is perched on a log extending from the water, its back toward the camera and its tail feathers obscuring most of its legs and feet. Reflected in the blue water beneath the brilliant blue sky is the pelican’s entire body and head, creating an almost mirror-like double image. I photographed thousands of frames to capture and ultimately cull for the sharpest reflection. It was a challenging process because the water was constantly undulating, continuously changing the focus, clarity, and appearance of the reflection. A very slight movement in the water remains visible, giving the reflection a subtle sense of motion. The pelican holds its neck gracefully upright with its bill pointed downward. A small specular highlight in its eye brings the bird to life and draws the viewer into the otherwise quiet scene. A beautiful, quiet, and artistic moment of an American white pelican relaxing on a perch in a wetland habitat so vital to its existence.

A great blue heron moves position to fish at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado.

Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron moves into position to fish at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this horizontal black-and-white photograph, the viewer looks out across a pond. In the lower-right quadrant, a heron is silhouetted on a branch jutting out of the water from a submerged fallen tree. Facing the camera with its head turned to its left, the heron appears poised to fish, with one foot or its talons just touching the water. Across the far background, a silhouetted skyline of rectangular and angular grain elevators rises above the horizon, remnants of the area’s agrarian history. The pond itself was once a rock quarry used to mine river rock for cement aggregate. Today, the former quarry has been transformed into a wetland and designated nature area. The grain elevators are abstractly reflected in the pond’s rippled water, adding depth, perspective, and visual interest to the scene while connecting the area’s industrial and agricultural past with its present-day role as wildlife habitat. A beautiful black-and-white scenic photograph of a great blue heron utilizing a wetland habitat so vital to its existence.

Photo by Kort Duce At sunrise, a great blue heron takes flight from its perch above the pond and heads toward the shore at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this horizontal color photograph, a great blue heron is silhouetted in left profile in the upper-left quadrant of the frame, its wings down as it lifts off. Its legs have just touched the water, creating a splash beneath it. On the far right side of the frame, near center, is the branch perch from which the heron launched. The background is a silhouetted shoreline, while out-of-focus cattails and reeds in the foreground frame the heron and add context to the scene.

Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron chokes down a large fish at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, a great blue heron fills the frame from the chest up in left profile, its long neck fully extended as it swallows a large fish it has just caught. Its beak is open and its tongue protrudes as the fish’s tail fins jut outward, still flapping, while the fish slips down the heron’s throat. The background consists of pond water and the rocky shoreline. A remarkable documentary photograph capturing the dramatic moment a great blue heron consumes its catch in the wetland habitat so vital to its survival.

Photo by Kort Duce A young barn swallow begs as another barn swallow flies by at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, a young barn swallow fills the frame as it perches on a tiny dead tree branch, facing the camera with its head turned to its left, revealing its right profile. Its beak is wide open in a begging call, while its wings are spread apart, extending beyond the edges of the frame. The background is a brilliant Colorado-blue sky, characteristic of the state’s 300-plus days of sunshine each year. A charming moment featuring a young barn swallow at the edge of the wetland habitat so vital to its survival.

Two birds of a feather?

I don’t think so…

A territorial male red-winged blackbird rides - and attacks - the back of a Canada goose at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado.

#BirdOfTheDay #BirdBuddies #ECK #bird #birds #birdphotography #birdsofbluesky #nature #wildlife #wildlifephotography #wetland

Photo by Kort Duce A territorial male red-winged blackbird appears to be riding the back of a Canada goose at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado, but appearances are deceiving; the blackbird is actually attacking the goose and driving it away from its nesting area. In this horizontal color photograph, a Canada goose fills the frame from behind as it swims away as quickly as it can, seemingly trying to escape the blackbird perched on its back. The goose pushes a broad wake through the otherwise still water, while a large feather floats near its neck, surrounded by turbulent ripples as the passing wake crashes against it. At the tail end of the goose, a male red-winged blackbird stands in left profile with its wings spread for balance as it aggressively pursues the intruder. In the lower right of the frame, the water is especially choppy as the goose’s webbed feet churn beneath the surface, adding to the sense of frantic movement. A remarkable image of a male red-winged blackbird fiercely defending its nesting area and driving away anything that ventures too close.

A great blue heron prepares to launch into flight at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado.

Photo by Kort Duce A great blue heron prepares to launch into flight at a nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, a heron fills the frame in a hunched, downward-facing three-quarter profile, with its head turned to the right, revealing its left side. Its wings are raised and beginning to unfold as it prepares to leap into flight. The heron is perched on a curved tree branch intertwined with another fallen tree. Birds of all kinds seem to favor these two intertwined trees in the pond, which provide an ideal perch elevated above the water and relatively safe from most predators. The background is the opposite shoreline, softly blurred, with pond water visible across the lower portion of the frame. A beautiful action shot of a great blue heron poised for flight in a wetland habitat so vital to its existence.
