Hurry Up Heron

This Heron was certainly in a hurry and so was I...not much time for photography anymore.


Since I don't have much time I only had my Sony in my purse and without the big lens.

Guess it really didn't matter...cause he was in a hurry too...

only got a few shots off before he flew off.



That was a strand of my hair across the lower right of the picture...windy day. Well...guess it's Heron today and gone tomorrow. haha

I love his big stride in the first photo - Don't give it up; you're too good...some of us just have to squeeze the photo-ops in, ut it's worth it.

For being in a hurry, they are just beautiful close-up shots, Jan!

Great capture of his long stride. Keep sneaking in the little opportunities like this and we'll enjoy them all.
