Golden late‑afternoon light skims a marina dock on Sanibel Island, Florida, illuminating a poised Great Blue Heron with salt‑ruffled chest plumes and copper‑gray wings against calm Gulf waters. The elegant wader’s long bill and stilted legs create a graceful silhouette that embodies the quiet rhythm of the barrier islands near the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge. Perfect for coastal décor, nature editorials, and conservation messaging, this premium high‑resolution digital download preserves fine feather detail, warm dock textures, and glassy water—digital file only, no physical print. A serene portrait of Florida wildlife at the water’s edge.
