Description

This Herron sat beside the river so still, never blinked, moved or anything, for SO LONG, and he let me get SO CLOSE, I truly was beginning to think he was a lawn ornament. I couldn't believe how close I got. I got so many pictures of him, I don't know what to do with them all, LOL, so thought I'd upload at least one of them. Thanks so much for stopping by and for any comments you may leave. I have yet to play catch up here .. but will tonight. :) Take care, and have a great day! Shari

Excellent picture. Most of the herons around here aren't so nice about letting you get this close. Glad you could.

wow... I've never seen a Heron this close, either. They are in our pond often. I wonder if it is injured? I only say that because of the way it is sitting... Very nice profile, Shari! :0)

WooHoo Shari, your bird pics are coming right along!! What a treat to get this guy, they are quite skiddish but this one does seem like a lawn ornament if you got this close....Well done! Aloha!

What a beautiful bird and wonderful capture. Very good focus. I immediately noticed the feathers swooping down the back. Great job.

I don't think I've ever seen a heron in a sitting position like this. You must have hypnotised him to stay still like that...what ever you did, you have a great picture here.
