Weekend Walk:
I put my new tele-converter lens on my camera and walked to the bay in hopes of catching sight of my favorite avian friend, the Great Blue Heron. My feathered neighbor was not at his usual hunting spot and in spite of the fact that this heron stands at almost 4 feet, I did not spy him anywhere. Then just as I decided to head back home, I spotted him, with his long neck tucked, resting among the reeds and low bushes. Perhaps one day he will raise his long black head plumes for my camera and I will share, with all of you, his beauty. As you can see, plumes raised or not he is one stunning bird.

Heron's quite imposing. I like the color too. Didn't know they stand at 4 feet.
wow! Your 4 feet feathered friend is gorgeous :)
Great shots! Have a great week ahead!
Stunning photo. These wonderful birds are so very priestly. I love them. Thanks for this view.
hi! nice photos..x links?
They are magnificent, aren't they!? We have cranes, herons, egrets, red-tailed hawks and all kinds of creatures at our Swamp. They never cease to amaze me.
Oh yeah... that's a stunning bird! I was at a bird santuary today but didn't take any good pictures with my poor digital camera.
amazing shots!
Thanks for dropping by!
whoa, 4 feet? i would not dare coming close to it.

He's gorgeous! They are rather common here, and yet I always get a thrill when I see them. Just beautiful birds, and a great shot!
Wow! Thanks for all the complements on my photographic skills. But, honestly, it was just a lucky shot. Although, the Great Blue Heron is a common bird, I enjoy his beauty every time I see him.
