Closing In From Behind
On a recent afternoon out at the salt marsh, I saw a great blue heron flying just above the reeds and taking some serious evasive maneuvers.
The guy closing in from behind looked rather sinister to me and I believe I’m not the only one that decided he might be up to no good.
Since I was not the target of the hunt I didn’t actually have to leave, but our nervous GBH friend clearly figured it would be a great idea to quickly depart the premises.

Great capture and image.
