I think you are right. Bring up the shadows in Lightroom an I'll bet the beak lightens up to the yellowish/black tricolored beak.

This is an image taken last month at Gatorland in Florida. Image cropped but straight out of camera and taken with tripod mounted 100-400mm GM and A7rIII.
I am going through the images of this bird and would like to process them. Anyone know what imature wading bird this is? Immature/fledgling Tricolored Heron
I tried my a6400, with the mc-11, the Sigma 150-600c, with the Kenko 1.4 tc today.
I don't recommend it. Focus was spotty at best, but every now and then it would hit.
The first image was initially posted a number of days ago cropped and straight out of the camera in the thread requesting what kind of Immature wading bird this was.
The second photo is now IDed and processed.
Photo taken at 8:35 AM.
Looking at a Fledgeling or Juvenile Tricolored Heron

At Gatorland, Orlando or Kissimmee, FL
Haven't posted much lately - been spending time traveling.
This is a friendly Cape May Warbler at Magee Marsh in Ohio, last month.
I wasn't going to include the 1:1 crop (last image) because of the branch in front of the top of his head, but I never got such a good shot of a birds mouth and tongue.
All shots are with A9 and 100-400GM at 1/500 sec and f/5.6 (it was not very light).

Very nice photos. Seems like the kit is working well!
I liked your Swallow better, but thought it might be interesting to post this one anyway.
At Howard Marsh Metropark, in Northwest Ohio.
Thanks Kim! Well the Tamron 150-600 didnt focus well at all on the A7RIII but the Sigma 150-600 and MC-11 is worlds better. However im looking to finally switch to a native Sony lens so I preordered the new 200-600.
