Little Green Heron Poolside

Uploaded: September 03, 2013

Description

I spotted this little heron on the steps of our pool taking a bath. He got out and then went back in a second time. The birds love to drink the pool water too. It is a salt water pool but not nearly as salty as the sea water. I shot this from inside my house.

Exif: F Number: 7.1, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/640 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 200, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 700.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II

GREAT shot! You are lucky he hasn't been in your pond, if you have one. Since one visited ours last summer for a couple of weeks, there have been NO fish, NO tadpoles, NO crayfish, No little frogs. Only a couple of big, fat bullfrogs survived that binge! #10831391
