Artist's Description
Awesome portrait of a Great Blue Heron spreading its wings out while perched on a rock in a pond and hunting for its next meal. This posture is common in the hot days of summer to help the birds cool off or to dry their wings.

About Sue Melvin
Photography is my passion! I enjoy capturing and sharing the world around me as seen through the lens of my camera. My primary interest centers around the beauty of nature with my main subjects being flowers, birds, animals, butterflies and sunsets. I find many opportunities to photograph the natural world through my love of bird watching and visiting botanical gardens. Over my lifetime I have lived and traveled (and continue to travel) to many parts of the world and enjoy sharing those cultural experiences with others through my photography. In addition, I use various digital techniques to create painterly photographic art, Out of Bounds (OOB) 3D art illusions, and colorful abstracts from my own photographs. Your time spent...

Sue, this is an amazing capture of the heron! I love how they spread their wings like this, I am not sure if they are stretching or what, but an interesting move none the less. Lovely image, an instant favorite!
Sue Melvin replied:
Thanks, Carl! I believe they do this to cool off and I know it was pretty hot the day I took this photo. Also to dry their wings. Thanks so much for the feature in your Bird Watchers group!
