The heron has been a regular down at the river lately. I’m still waiting for it to catch a fish while I’m watching. I thought he came close a couple of days ago when it dived into the water, but it came up empty billed and shortly thereafter flew off.

That second shot is really nice since it shows the Heron in a less than usual pose.
That second shot . . . I agree, unusual and beautifully captured.
Wonder how long he plans to stick around. As everyone else said, that second image deserves to be printed! That is a beautiful beautiful capture!
