Great Blue Heron Backlit in Tree

Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge - Lipsec, Delaware
September 4th, 2021
It was very early on this day at Bombay and the sun was still below the horizon with the sunrise close at hand. The early morning light with the accompanying clouds was painting beautiful colors across the sky as I came upon this Great Blue Heron resting on a small dead tree. I was able to capture this silhouette shot of the bird showing the amazing colors of the morning sky.

I am in my 50's and happily married with 5 daughters from our blended family. I became interested in photography just a few short years ago, much later in life than many but my passion is strong. I started out experimenting with scenic mountain shots, landscapes, flowers and anything nature as being outside is where I am happiest.
