Great shot Mike. The light on the heron’s back shown the bird up really well against the dark background. If the heron had been closer to the trees, I guess it would have been impossible to photograph.

My heart just took off. After all the close ups, this one surprised me. I’m the heron. Exhilarating.

Unfortunately I see far too many herons around my garden pond!
