  Classic heron capture, Len. My marauding herons have not visited recently, so I have sought them out at local parks ... I like it better that way.

  Oh, I'm jealous! I've been chasing one around the Platte River, and I swear he has super hearing! He takes off everytime I get near. I'll keep trying, they're such beautiful birds! Great shot, Len :0)

  I really like how you captured the golden tones in the heron's reflection, Len, this is wonderfully composed and very sharp for the short time you had to shoot this!
