The image is a photograph of a bird standing on a wooden post. The bird is a Great Blue Heron, also known as a Heron. It has a long, pointed beak and a grey body with white and black stripes on its wings and legs. The heron is facing towards the right side of the image and its head is turned slightly to the left. The background is blurred, but it appears to be a body of water with small waves crashing onto the shore. The water is a light brown color and there are a few small rocks visible in the background.
