JOhn and Joseph...
Just for the record, these guys you both shot are Great Blue Herons...
even though, as we all can see, they have more
gray than blue...
One of my favorite big birds...
Joseph, I like that bottom one better --- book-end effect of birdies
John ...
got him nice and close - too bad you were there before the good light
- go back :-)
ann - who is back herself for a bit...

I like it. As others have said, a bit busy and the harsh light makes
the bokeh a bit harsh as well, but given the restrictions you had
working against you, it's very good photo.
Rather ashamed to show my Heron encounter last week next to your
maligned image. So if you want to feel better, John, take a look here.
