Isn't it so remarkable that such a, big long legged creature can glide so gracefully through the air! I know its not a good comparison but this photo makes me think og a daddy-long legs.
its wide wings provide balance and gracefulness in the air as it glides.
I love the bulky folds of its wings as it prepares for flight over the water.

You got some wonderful shots of the heron! Usually when they fly by me I'm so flustered and excited that I miss the great shots. :)
ReplyDeleteWe spend the winter in Lady lake, Fl and they are all over. Everything stops whenever one takes flight. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteNice photos! They do look pretty awkward when they are taking off...lovely birds in flight though!
