This is one of my best photos of a Great Blue Heron in flight. She had just taken off, and I was in the right spot, with my camera pointing in the right direction.
The Great Blue has a unique flying style. They have that long neck that they have to deal with, and then those legs .. can’t just tuck those away, so they just let the legs follow, and lead with the neck.
