Side Salad
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.
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.

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. 🙂

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. 🙂
