windy title aside (we know it is a b&w), I like the low key decision and sharpness. gl

Looks like a Snowy Egret.
I still like the shot I know it probably wasn't possible but if it was framed within the logs that would have been cool.

I've seen a few heron shots so far but this is one that is interesting and artistic.
