Ken, nice reflection of an adult Black-crowned Night-heron and good contrast with the yellow-green color of the Batis (saltwort) in the background. I understand that you visited the San Joaquin Wildlife Sanctuary in Irvine over the weekend and left your card for me. I hope you found wonderful things to shoot at my marsh!
