Morning Blue Heron

Don Woodwiss-Woodiwiss Photography-Blue Heron-morning light — This morning I was sitting on the shoreline as the sun peaked above the horizon. Dressed in camouflage and being very still I waited. Ten minutes later to my surprise a Great Blue Heron landed in the willow tree 30′ to my left. I sat for five minutes and then slowly swung my camera to bear. The resultant capture above is somewhat busy but displays the effects of the morning sunrise. We spent a pleasant 45 minutes together until the morning sun was blanketed by cloud.

Mergansers in flight
