Aww, Beau, I didn’t mean it!
You’re no beast but a beloved friend—and I just can’t resist a flashy title.
As he visited me lately, our friendly and inquisitive Great Blue Heron spread his magnificent wings to reveal his beautiful belly and the interior side of his magnificent wings.
Then he turned to me and sang as only Beau can manage a serenade: SQUAHEHAHNK! Squahehahnk!
Best of all, I was able to capture it all on my new Sony a7r IV camera, with its 61 megapixel sensor — fitted with Sony’s new 200-600mm f5.6-f6.3 lens —so I could capture every feather and barb of Beau’s interior wingspan, and every beautiful, white powder feather blowing in the breeze.
Thanks so much, O Beau the Rock Star. We love you!
