Proud of The New Hairdo

This Great Blue Heron seemed to be prancing around showing off its new hairdo. You have to admit it looks very striking!

ALSO - I am not a videographer, but was pleased to get this video of a GBH catching and eating a fish. Check it out at this link - http://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=em-upload_owner&v=VxtBdzpR2rg

Great photo and a cool video. I wonder if that fish swam around in his belly for a while!

This beauty seems to pop out of the watery background.

very pretty work Vern

That bird is really "stylin". I like all the various textures in the image and also that it is almost b/w except for the birds head and neck.

Great pose and sharp details. The patterns in the water form a perfect background. "V"

Nice picture of the GBH. The video was great. I think the GBH washed down the fish with a little bit of water after it swallowed it, just like humans do!

That's the most punk heron I've seen.
