Seriously cool reflections Eric and a nice pair of Heron shots Amy - hard acts to follow. I was out walking a few days back and encountered some blooms in the weeds when I spotted the scene that would bee my wings for today

Can anyone help me out, I'm not sure what family these juveniles come from....my best guess is Blue Heron, but really I have no idea.

Wonderful photography, Amy. I think they're juvenile glossy ibis. Post them to inaturalist.org.

Here is my shot for Winged Wednesday. Wood Ducks have been hard to find over the years, I would maybe see one in a year . This year has been different, they are at most of the parks I visit. View attachment 40770

Love the reflection and colors on this most beautiful drake, Chuck

That's a stunning photo, Don. Love the blue eye on the hawk and everything else too.
