He Did It Again!

Yesterday I was watching this blue heron fishing at the edge of the marsh, when once again our pro fishing expert came up with two fish on one attempt!

I guess there is nowhere else to go from here but hope for a threefer. If anybody can do it, this heron will.

  It takes the same energy to catch two as it does one so this heron has the right idea!

Brilliant shots, Phil. Mr. GBH is a force to be reckoned with. I’m sure his reputation precedes him, and those fishies shiver in their shoes when they see that beak coming for them. 😯

  He is definitely head GBH out there and especially since our pal Radar has been missing for over two months now. We suspect he is off with a family but will return. He won’t be happy to find this guy working his favorite fishing spot.

  I was almost too shocked to grab the pics, but lucky I stayed with him. He caught a ton of fish too, don’t know where he put it all.

  This heron is a pro and will not be going hungry any time soon with those skills!

Great shot. I only managed to get a shot of a white faced heron with one fish.

  Thanks, well one fish at a time is the usual limit. This guy may be poaching. 🙂

Now three would be quite something.

  I (and the GBH) have a new goal to shoot for. He better come through too now that I’ve practically promised it will happen.
