Great sequence that captures the Heron at work - assuming you were in Michigan and not some place where they are more tame, getting close and not spooking the heron is an accomplishment. (I usually see them fly off after I step on a twig 50 yard away and spook them....) #3 and#5 remind me of the Stork Position in Karate kid ...

I was shooting a Great Blue Heron in the wetlands near my house this morning 
when he took off across the pond. After a sprint of about twenty yards, he spun 
around and dove underwater. He came up with lunch, a small carp I think, which 
promptly went down the gullet. My access was limited by trees and brush, so I 
couldn’t get very close, so these are 30 to 50% of frame. K-3 with DA* 60-250 
and DA 1.4 X converter. All at 350mm, f5.6, ISO 800. Click the slideshow button 
to see them in order.
