I previously worked as a news and sports photographer. Recently I have been enjoying wildlife photography. My approach toward bird photos is similar to sports photography. I attempt to capture mostly action and hopefully a unique perspective.
We currently have a lot of widgeon grass growing in the marsh pond and occasionally a bird such as this great blue heron can come up with a side order of green salad along with his fish dinner.
Great capture!
Thanks glad you like it!
You never know if you like it until you try it.
That’s what my mom used to say. But I was a stubborn kid, even if I did end up liking it, I wouldn’t admit it. 🙂
So Beautiful, still want to know how you get such great closeups? Are you really that cliose????
Oh I’m pretty close. A heron like this will often be right in front of me, and completely ignore me. But that’s just how I like it. 🙂
Grande scatto Phill, complimenti!!!
Ciao, Pat
Grazie Pat! 🙂
A great shot!
What a good boy to eat his greens!
Seems as if the heron enjoys variety!
Fantastic capture 🙂
A little roughage makes the fish pass through easier. 🙂
The clarity and detail you get never cease to amaze me. Wonderful shot!
I hope it went down well 🙂
He looks happy with that snack. I am worried about myself when these little treats are starting to look good to me! 😉 Colors are lovely here!
