I never tire of watching Great Blue Herons (Ardea herodias) and catching them in fun and unusual poses.

Magnificent poses, Mike! I love them all, but the third is my favourite. 🙂

That’s funny. That first one has the craziest hair of any heron I’ve seen!

Definitely three good ones! You must have a way with them.

Wow, that first shot is a real winner. Enter a photo contest with it!

  Thanks. The Great Blue Herons can keep me occupied for hours on end, though they often have more patience than I do, so I don’t get as many action shots as I would like.
