    Default Juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron in Flight

    Last time I was rightly criticized by the sharpness of the head of this bird in flight.
    I promised to post one where the middle (active) focal square sits on the beak.
    Here it is. (I still like the previous not so sharp beak shot much better as a result of better wing position)
    Thanks for looking.

    Nice capture - good wing position - worked underside of wings well.

    The left most wing is a bit soft but that doesn't bother me as the head is sharp.
