Alert In The Morning?

On a recent morning I was barely awake when just out of the corner of my eye I spotted this tricolored heron come zipping in and blast across the salt marsh right in front of me.

This bird seemed particularly active and alert, much more so then myself. I wonder what time he got up?

Super in-flight shots. I continue to marvel at your skills (and I love the abundant wildlife there that you showcase for us all).

It says something that you were awake enough to capture these great images.

  Yeah no kidding, morning is not my best or most alert time of day. Lucky I brought coffee along.
