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!







All shot with the trombone @ AV, f/5.6, ISO-200, 400-mm, Spot metering, Handheld...

Well shot. Clean and ful of detail especially like the eye in #3. Reminds me of something but don't know what yet. Gobstopper/aniseed/pool ball?

Great photos - I have tried to take photos of birds at the local duckpond, no luck, they are a lot quicker than I am

Great action shot of the heron's attack...

Wow! Great shooting John. Awesome bird.

Thanx guys, I'll post some more later for y'all!

great shots there John.......like your action one good timing

Thanx Russ, Glad you like it mate!

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

Excellent shots! I love #2, the splash is fantastic!
