Great Blue Heron by the water for Watery Wednesday
I have seen very few Great Blue Heron this summer and so was very pleased to see this one yesterday morning by the river's edge while crossing the bridge so I drove to the park there. I used the photo shop poster edges filter to enhance its appearance.( please click on the picture to enlarge it.) While watching it flew up river 
and as I watched it dipped one of its wings in the water.
Bye bye Heron, I hope I find you again this morning when I check down by the river for a glimpse of you.( see editing note below about this mornings sighting)

editing note: I took thisabove picture this morning at my favourite pond whileI was there looking for Canada Geese. There were no geese to be found, but instead I found two Great Blue Heron there, which were just leaving as I caught this one just taking off.

Lovely photos! The arced wings of the heron is poetry in motion. Mystical Teacher caught the event in words beautifully.
I love the shots of him flying! I don't seem to be able to get them, though! They are shy birds!
Great watery shots...love the ones in flight!
Great capture.
Great shots of the Heron in flight.
May try for another post card in oil? Stay tuned. rlr
Beautiful! It's been a while since I've seen one. Great flight shots. Love the one dipping its wing.
