STOPS ALONG THE WAY

GREEN HERON FISHING (FOUR PHOTOGRAPHS)

Green Heron Series 1

I featured this heron a few posts ago when he caught a water bug. In this current series he was fishing for a bigger prize and after patient stalking caught a small fish. There have been several green herons at the reserve this summer. As they keep returning to the same shallows I have been lucky to spot them many times and have taken more photos than I do most years.

    Nice shots of my favorite heron! They should be here now too…I’ll have to look more closely.

    Excellent series. The stump is a nice component and the last shot is a prize catch for photographer as well as heron!

    These are wonderful, Belinda! In the first three it almost looks as if he’s admiring himself in the reflections but he finally caught a fish to prove that he was really not vain. 😉
