Deborah Sandidge August 05, 2004

Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this little heron, I appreciate your comments! :o)
Hi Jennifer, some of the herons here are well socialized. The fishermen often feed them leftover bait, so they equate people with food I suppose. A few are very tolerant of me being close. (They will fly if I get in their space, LOL!) I try to move slow, but track with them. I spooked a beautiful pair of mallards tonight, so I know how you feel. ;o) #689967

Thank you Michael! (I agree, a bit like a Rorschach quiz!) Photographing them is mesmerizing when the water is so glassy, it's almost addictive. #691195
