Reflection

Southern Vancouver Island

I wasn't sure if it was the reflection or a fish that had this heron so transfixed, but I couldn't pass up the shot. Great Blue Heron facts: Great blues are Canada’s most widespread heron, from the Maritimes to British Columbia. There are probably tens of thousands in the country, although west coast populations may be at risk due to the area’s growing human population. Most head south once water begins to freeze and some travel as far south as Mexico or Cuba. However, in parts of B.C. and the Maritimes, because of a more temperate climate, some remain all winter. ~ Canadian Georgraphic
