The Blue Heron is such a magnificent bird. You have captured him quite nicely. I like how you slowed the bird and the background keeps moving. Great! #504939

This image makes me so jealous..lol, Len!! I've been trying to get a good Heron in flight image all summer at our local lake and all I've managed so far are some really unique images of their butts as they are flying away!! Terrific image my friend!! #3197224

Ann Bruynseels August 22, 2006

Wonderful capture ! #3199860

Leonard Pierce August 22, 2006

Thanks Don and Ann!
Don, it was pure luck that I was in the right place to get this shot...I usually end up with "not very flattering" butt shots too! #3200527

Karen Slagle August 22, 2006

Super action shot, Len. These gorgeous birds are hard to sneak up on, they are so wary. This is cool... #3200685

Thanks Karen! #3200819
