Great story and shots Yves. You must have had a great time taking in the action of this patient green heron. Nicely captured Yves.

Thanks Debra. The sun was perfect and two other photographers joined the shooting. We sure had a great time shooting the heron that was moving different places.

Good pair of photos, Yves, and a good story to go with them. I love the freeze action of the other one...you can almost feel the tension. Nicely done.

Yves Langlois

Thank you for the nice and appreciated comments Jane.

Description
This green heron just caught a tiny fish after a minute freeze watch. I was quite surprise that he din't swallow it right away. He rather walked out of the water and eated it up on the shore. (Taken jul 2025)
