I did try, but it resisted my best efforts, (and those of my various raw
converters, I keep thinking that I should give RawTherapee another try),
sometimes you just have to go with the flow.

PJ,
Have you tried lightening up the bird a little bit.
I think the K-5II will have a bit more detail for you.

Yesterday was a miserable day, the weather was just perfect, I took the day
off, and went to Motor Vehicles, and spent 5 hours waiting, 20 minutes to
get a number and the rest for a clerk to take care of a 5 minute
transaction... Well I didn't spend all that time there, I did take a hour
in the middle to go get lunch, but if I missed my number I'd have to start
all over again...
Afterward I stopped at the Hammonasset State Park, to try to catch some
Harbor Seals, there were rumors of them but no seals, (they spend a couple
of weeks, more or less, here then disappear to wherever they spend the
summer, and repeat in the fall going to their winter quarters).
So I made due with other wild life. The previous Redwing Blackbird shot and
Cormorant on the rock were taken there, as was this, Blue Heron, back lit
and almost silhouetted. I thought of rendering it as black and white, but
really what would be the point.

I'm processing a few of the better shots and then winnowing them down to
what I consider the best, either due to content, composition, or what I
laughingly call technical quality. So maybe coming soon a GESO of my usual
tripe.
Equipment: Pentax K-5II w/smc Pentax A*300mm f4.0 w/smc F 1.7x AF adapter.
As usual comments are welcome but may be totally ignored.
