Ardea herodias, Anas platyrhynchos and their babies on a bamboo raft in a wetland pool

A great blue heron (Ardea Herodias) stands gracefully on a bamboo raft in the center of a tranquil wetland pool, its long legs and slender neck ready for action. Nearby, a mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) swims with her ducklings, their furry bodies paddling rapidly across the calm water. The scenery is serene, with birds flying, water gently rippling, and lush reeds swaying gently in the background. Sunlight filters through the trees, casting a peaceful glow on the water, while the reflections of the birds add to the overall sense of harmony.
