Original – Pacific Reef Heron (Egretta sacra), Boat Harbour, New South Wales, Australia
Reason
I first saw species in Thailand in 2011, then I didn't see it again until last year. But it took until march this year to get a good photo. This species has both a light and a dark morph. This illustrates the dark morph well.

  • Comment – I see posterization bands on upper right side of the image. Also wondering what that ghost-like background shadow is above the tail. Bammesk (talk) 15:55, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • (Adam Cuerden) You're correct. I think I derped and post processed in 8 bit instead of 16. I did it again and uploaded over the top. I can't comment about the darker bit of background near the tail. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JJ Harrison (talkcontribs)
      • JJ Harrison, somehow the region where sky meets ground got worse, I see bands from x,y=(0,1900) to (4200,1400), they are minute, but there were none in your first upload. Bammesk (talk) 01:17, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
