Fresh Shrimp Cocktail

Yesterday evening we were watching this great blue heron that seemed delighted with his pre-dinner appetizer of shrimp plucked right out of the salt marsh.

It doesn’t get any fresher than that!

I am always astonished by the photos you take in the marsh…The detail and the expression, the way you use the available lighting is so superb.

I especially like the heron’s expression in the last shot–it seems to be smiling in anticipation of the tasty morsel–definitely a happy heron.

  He really does look very pleased with his shrimp snack and I suspect I would be too, it did look tasty. Of course I prefer mine more on the cooked side but hey everybody has their preferences. 🙂
