A Great Blue Heron comes in for a graceful landing with a bonus pic ▶️

I've been playing around with Photoshop a lot more to combine images in fun ways. What do you think?

I was really lucky to be standing where I was for this shot, it was a really lucky day overall for birds!

Frogs on a logs in a bog, Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge on September 2, 2023.

Some of these bullfrogs (an invasive species) were lined up on logs, almost equally spaced apart. It looked staged.

Northern Pacific Tree Frog seen at Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge on September 2, 2023. This was the only one I spotted this year; when I was there last year, I saw hundreds.
