I like how the horizontal lines of the green water are juxtaposed with the grey / blue / yellow diagonal bird, wonderful composition – and complete concentration.
Thanks! I was there for about 45 minutes and didn’t see any of the four or five herons nearest to me catch anything. So I hope they nabbed a snack when I was looking in another direction or that’s a lot of hungry herons.

Thanks. Though I can’t take any credit for the composition, since that’s where the heron chose to perch. 🙂

Snap with the grey heron! Though be it in different hemispheres 🙂

You caught him at just the right moment. I do love the fishing birds and their patience…followed by their quickness.

Me too. But I haven’t been lucky enough to see one catch anything yet! (Herons have way more patience than I do.)

Once I managed to get a photo of a heron and when I looked at it, the heron had a fish in its beak! It was wonderful.
