Living by a lake has its advantages. I love having a view! And the wildlife can be spectacular.
Yesterday I looked out the window and saw this beautiful heron. He stood still for a long time, staring at the water.

I'm saying "he" but perhaps it's a "she." Forgive me if I'm wrong.
I went outside, taking care not to make much noise. I tried framing him through the ornamental grass. I didn't get too close because I didn't want to frighten him. I have a 30x zoom lens so I didn't need to get very near.
I went back in the house. Later I looked again and he was still there. I caught a picture as he got ready to fly off.
Beautiful photos of the Great Blue Heron!

ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to see such things from your windows! He (she?) is gorgeous. I used to occasionally see a pair on the farm we lived on a while back. I thought that was weird.
