A Good Night Of Fishing Ruined!
We went over tonight to check out the salt marsh at low tide to see if much of anything was going on and we saw this great blue heron enjoying it’s favorite fishing hole back in the reeds among the oyster beds.
Suddenly the heron snapped to alert and we quickly realized what caused all the fuss…an unwelcome visiter had arrived which effectively curtailed the heron’s fishing in that area for the evening!

Beautiful shot! At least the Heron was wise enough to move on. The setting is very nice with the reeds.
Thanks very much Molly! The GBH wasn’t so much in danger as it was aggravated. At one point it started to squawk and complain loudly…as if the gator cared. 🙂
And thanks for mentioning the setting, that’s what I liked about this photo as well.
I agree, the setting is indeed nice. Lovely shot!
Great seeing you here Ammi, thanks much!
