A Great Blue from the other morning on a stick run.
This year the Herons have been gathering materials along the edge of the swamp instead of the nearby woods. This makes it easier for open shots like this. They will pick this clean in short order though.

What lovely light; must have been a beautiful morning!
We have nice light often this time of year, of course half the year we get tropical hot glaringly sun, a trade off lol
🤷♀️ Win some, lose some. Today, you won!
And tomorrow who knows 😂😂😂
Hey Ted,
Wishing you a healthy and smooth 2025, full of wonderful photo moments! Happy New Year! 🎉
All the best,
Marc
Thanks, the same back to you and yours. As the old 1940’s movie short Our Gang philosopher Alpha once said …’hanging on Spanky I don’t know where we are going, but we’re on our way’!
Well, Ted, it looks like the year ahead will be full of surprises. Whether they’ll all be good, and for whom, remains to be seen. One thing’s for sure—I’m bracing myself for what might unfold in various countries. Let’s hope it all ends peacefully.
