A heron is silhouetted in the sunrise at the western tip of the island. If you click to enlarge the photo you can see Bob Sikes bridge in the distance which spans Santa Rosa Sound.

About Me
- Barrier Island Girl
- Pensacola Beach, Florida, United States
- My name is D.J. A few years ago I moved to one of the most beautiful places in the world--Pensacola Beach, Florida. I love exploring the beach, documenting its changes with my photos, volunteering to help our sea turtles, attending concerts on the beach in the summer, and participating in many of the events we have throughout the year. I also enjoy sharing my photographs with you so that you can appreciate the beauty of our very special island.

I enlarged your beautiful picture. Does it look like there's a baby bird underneath the Heron’s tail feathers?
Ha! You saw it! I wondered if anyone would. It actually isn't a heron chick but a fairly large (but juvenile) heron. The heron in silhouette is standing atop small dune, but the one that looks like a chick hiding below is standing farther away and in a lower spot on the beach. There were about six of them spread out around the point this morning.
Good eye, Deb!
