Upside Down for a Meal

Cal. State University, Long Beach, CA

The Green Heron made an attempt to capture a meal at the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden which I visited for the first time today.

The Green Heron was my favorite subject for the day.

Great timing to get this Astrid. I've never been on campus, but have heard of the garden. Maybe we'll go shooting there some time.
