A Great Blue Heron

ISO 250      1/500     f 11     375mm

   I was driving by a suburban micro park when this beautiful bird flew past me and settled into the small pond in the park.  I got out my gear and watched him for about an hour as he waded around the pond, fishing for his lunch.  This was the best of several good shots that I captured of him that day.  I especially liked how the colors in the water matched up to the colors of his feathers.
