A Great Blue Heron scores lunch. I might be able to get closer to this one but if they get curious about something they might decide to give it a poke. That beak is serious business.

That’s exactly what they look like when they are in my pond eating my koi. I’m going to shoot it if I get the chance, it ate about $800 worth last time.

You’ll pay more than that in federal fines and possible jail time.

Wow! That’s a great sequence that you captured.

I don’t know what it is, but I suggest the 30/.06 and have the guide back you up with a 12 gauge loaded with 00 buck.

It is a lot smaller than my pic. I tried the macro mode on my cam.

That’s great, except it would chase away the good birds, which we have no problem with when they come by to take a drink.

I always love your photos—part of spring!
To: livius
Yep, along the east shore. That new seawall really makes things difficult, a sloping bank makes framing easier.

Great Pics! Occasionally one lands near a marsh on my father’s property. Those birds have a huge wingspan!

Hope you didn’t disturb her. If not, check the web and look to see if she wrote you a message.
REally. My Mom used to check for a W or a P in the web.

P=Peace
