Great |Blue Heron for Saturday Critters
Yesterday afternoon my husband and I had been commenting on our lack of sightings of Great Blue Herons this summer. Later that afternoon I had decided to check out a favourite pond for Wood Ducks as I had seen three there earlier this week. As I was studying the pond for signs of movement which might suggest a duck or two among the water foliage I saw a huge bird rise from the pond area and fly away. Quickly aiming my camera randomly I was able to capture a few glimpses of a departing Great Blue Heron.
great shots of the heron in flight, glad you finally got to see one
ReplyDeleteHello, I am glad you finally saw a Great Blue Heron at your favorite pond. Great captures. I think we have some that migrate but some will stay year round now. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteNeat captures of your favorite ~ Great Blue Heron ~ thanks, ^_^

Great shots of the heron. Nice to capture them in flight.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. The wings spreading shot is neat to capture.
ReplyDeleteGlad you saw the Great blue, we do tend to get a bit worried if we havn't seen certain birds for a while, espesially with the climate change etc.
ReplyDeleteAll the best, Gordon.
