One for Az?

Taken in Costa Rica just before we came home before lockdown. It is a Fasciated Tiger Heron taken in low light and hence the not so good quality.

That's a great photo Gasman...

It amazes me how those very spindly legs can support the weight of the bird.

Thanks Mags and if you look at a lot of birds, they all appear to have the same 'spindly' legs

Thank you so much, gasman.

Love the composition of Tiger Heron and the rocks and sea foam.

Will make a good Oil Painting which I will try later.

The crystal clear water looks very inviting. A rich coast abundant with wildlife. Lucky you, expect you had a fabulous time, photographic wise.
