One of those scenes you bump into that just can’t not make some interesting photographs.
Ellen agreed, she was shooting from only a few feet away. Click here to view on PassingByPhoto.
My versions are below…
The small Heron was much more interested in some small critter than us.
The images above are in order so what had his attention must have moved on.
And once again a member of the Heron family shows us just how incredibly beautiful they can be. (BTW, Egrets are members of the Heron family too)
I love the way that Green Herons get so low into a kind of crouch as they stealthily move forward toward a potential prey. Nice shots, Ted. I have always found Green Herons to be much more expressive than their big brothers, the Great Blue Herons, who tend to more stoic.
I agree. I have yet to photo one using something as bait to catch a fish. I do have a few shots of their ‘odd’ tongue licking habit though. Like licking their lips, without lips LOL.
