I so badly wanted to say the crane technique.

reply

marygemignani.bsky.social•91 days ago

Different species but same kind of movements.

9tellthetruth.bsky.social•90 days ago

True, I was just so close. Lol. Like come on, be a crane, I was saying it in my head in Mr Miyagi's voice.

Holy shit!

Thanks! I was able to a whole series of shots of this bird, I think a migrator passing through, on top of that beautiful snag. I was thrilled and felt very fortunate.

Hi how are you doing

reply

belish.bsky.social•91 days ago

Beautiful picture! Every summer we kayak around the regulating reservoir nearby to observe a big heron rookery. They are amazing birds.

reply

marygemignani.bsky.social•91 days ago

Perhaps its name is Purch. A long lost descendent from the Munsters Lurch ?

Doing some tai chi?

Beat me to this- didn’t Mr. Miyagi get the idea from birds?

reply

atxdj.bsky.social•91 days ago

I guess his Dad

reply

mildwintersoldier.bsky.social•91 days ago

I don’t know, but I think that heron in the original picture is going to kick Johnny in the face.

Thank you for sharing this. Blue Herons remind me of my dad. One of his favorite birds to photograph (others were Osprey, pelicans, and he spent years going for the “perfect” seagull shot). My mother gave me a little wooden Blue Heron that she and my Dad bought on Sanibel Island, after he died.

reply

marygemignani.bsky.social•91 days ago

Thank you! My pleasure and what a wonderful connection to remember a grand bird and you father in the same thought. I am sorry for your loss.
