That's an interesting point about the antenna, although it look like it's pointing up this time! I like how this photo has a diversity of textures, from the bottom with its root system intricacies, the bird's feathers, and the smooth ripples of the water in the background.

A wonderful nature image of this grey heron standing on the roots of a tree. I am not sure if this is moonlight or sunlight as the background is dark, however it is lovely and shows his fine feathers.
He has given you a good sideways pose. A pleasure to view Fred.

Ha! Excellent title for this image. The feather does indeed stand out as an eye catching element.
The focus is spot on and the details clear with the colors rendered nicely.
Very nice work.

One of your very best bird photos! The colors and texture are excellent. I have photographed dozens of blue herons in the USA but none had an antenna feather like this one. Interesting!

Hi Super, I like your explanation of how the lone feather is an antenna for fish finding. LOL Love how every feather has perfect clarity. It gives a lovely texture to the image. Lighting is just as perfect! If I had a six to give this image would have one hands down. Beautiful shot My Friend! :o) Nancy

If you are right about the directional feather, then the heron must be waiting for a flying fish to come by. (lol)I like the sharp focus and clear detail in the feathers. I also like the clarity run the heron's eye.

A very nice shot with very sharp detail in the heron. I like the light that gives you such true colors and think the tangle of roots is fantastic.
