Great Blue Heron is Fishing


 

With autumn approaching one of the most daring Great blue herons becomes less wary and starts fishing in open areas.  

Thus, the Great Blue heron on photo above was so focused on fishing that I had an opportunity to stay with him as close as he allowed me and was able to capture a stunning moment when the Heron with his stretched long neck tried to catch fish.







I love everything on this photo, the splashes of water around the Heron's bill, his long neck, the wild yellow daisies that were shining with their bright blooms and of course, reflections in the water.  









Finally, the Heron caught a small fish.








The Great Blue Heron didn't swallow fish right away and I had a chance to create his head to shoulder portrait with fish in his mouth.


Generally, life is good!
