Thank you Ann and yeah it would have been nice if all that wasn't there

on around as I knew there was a little trail that would take me to the

soon as stepped over it I stepped on a stick and it made a cracking

Yeah. I thought perhaps it wouldn't be so skittish but it was so be it. 
It tends to hang out in that area so I am sure I will run into him/her

Yeah. I thought perhaps it wouldn't be so skittish but it was so be it. 
It tends to hang out in that area so I am sure I will run into him/her 
again. Hope that the Green Heron that was on the branches of the Blue 
Heron will be there as well and this time in a better spot.

i spent my youth watching herons, and that is a much more dynamic shot than i 
expected!


i'd consider cropping out some of the dead foliage and bringing up the shadows 
(if they are not too noisy)
