Green Heron Flight

Landscape colour photograph. At the bottom left corner of the photograph there is a tan, black, and white rock pointing diagonally upwards. Closer to the right side of the image but within the centre of the frame, there is a bird mid-flight facing away from the rock. The bird has two four-toed yellow feet and legs on the left side. The feathers on the bird are brown, white, and black. The bird’s two wings are bent and the feathers at the end are separated. The head of the bird is black with a little brown and white. The bird’s beak is yellow and orange and is pointing out towards the frame with its yellowish-white eye at the beginning of the beak. The rest of the photo is out of focus, a little blurry and is grey. The photograph is within a black frame.

Two postmarks are visible on the front. Both are oriented so that the circle is towards the center and the wavy lines are between the circle and the edge of the card. In the upper right, the dark postmark ink partially covers the roof of the building. Towards the lower left, over the lawn, the postmark ink is very faded.
