Old grey heron... perhaps

By oldgreyheron      
Once again I have an image from RSPB Saltholme where my namesake did a lazy fly-by. What a spectacular bird. I've loaded without scaling (I have always historically adjusted the image to 1000px wide) to see what happens. Any thoughts?

You panned very steadily to get this crisp superior image. One of the best herons in flight. TG
