Finally I got one close, but this guy/gall seems to be a different one from the one I usually see at this spot. Looks like a younger bird and did not flee when I went down to the shore. Just kept fishing in the shallow water.
This is my best Heron shoot yet! :-D
For those who don't know, This is a Great Blue Heron. Hope you like these images!

Great close ups of this Blue Heron.. I like a lot the detail in #1 and #3.
