Green Heron: The frame I meant to post the first time

[Kurt Bowman]

Next time I will look at my post more carefully, rather than looking at just the thumbnail :bg3:
Sony a9ii, 200-600mm. 1.4 TC f/9 at 1/10000, ISO 5000

Outstanding. Killer light, Close up flight pose, you could maybe sharpen the bird a bit more.

Very nice....I think it would be even better if you reduced your SS and reduced your ISO....The image does look good, but because of the high ISO, the use of NR has created a 'painterly' look...
