Subject: [missbirdphotos] Green Heron
Here is one bird that I've shot in the last couple of weeks - a green heron...
I was on a board walk with a short lens & saw a least bittern that was somewhat
out in the open on the edge of the marsh. I watched it try to catch a couple
of dragonflies. I decided that it wasn't worth the trouble of going for the
long lens. A bit later, I came back by, and it was STILL there! So, I left my
family to watch it for me, and jogged to the car for a big lens & tripod...
Less than 10 minutes (maybe less than 5) minutes later, I was back & ready.
And, of course, the least bittern was long gone... So, I accepted this green
heron as a consolation subject...
