Morning. Blue Crane or Heron, John James Audubon, 1827–38.

Illustration of a Great Blue Heron. The central focus is a large, slender blue heron with a long, pointed beak and prominent legs, depicted in profile as it stands on a rocky or muddy bank. In the background, there's a marshy landscape with tall reeds on the right and a body of water or distant land with trees under a soft, possibly sunset-tinged sky on the left. A smaller, light-colored bird is visible in the lower-left corner, near the water's edge
