Heron – Big
Lagoon State Park, FL
One of my
favorite water birds is the heron. Here
are some images of a wonderful bird in the wild, searching for food, and then
taking off for better hunting ground…..
Heron from
Observation Tower
At first, we
were high up on an observation tower when I first spotted this guy. Good overall view, but I needed to get closer
to this guy!
Heron in the
Grasses
This is more
like it. Here I am, down on the
shoreline, about 30 feet from this guy.
He doesn’t seem to be bothered at all that I’m so close.
Looking to
Open Water
Then, he
turned away from the nearby grasses. Is
he seeing a better feeding spot somewhere else?
He’s still not reacting to me, so I don’t think its discomfort or fear
of me.
Launching
Wow! I have never been so lucky to be able to get
this type of shot so close up!! The
amount of stretch he gets is amazing!
Flying
And, he’s
off to search in greener (or buggier?) pastures!
Enjoy!
