I spotted a Green Heron on the Salt River outside Phoenix and wanted to share this quiet, focused moment. The bird holds its beak out as parallel ripples guide the eye to a clear reflection, while warm late light brings out the chestnut throat and subtle green tones. Pale gold water, marsh plants, and smooth stones add scale and a gentle rhythm, making the scene feel calm and watchful.
