A Heron Goes Hunting

I thought this Great Blue Heron was going to come up with something when it got into this low stance. But alas, it came up empty! But the Great Blue and Green Herons are quite successful and I see them catching nice large fish almost every time I go to Delta Ponds. And I really liked the pose and reflection anyway.

Nikon COOLPIX P900
1/1000s f/5.6 at 178.0mm iso250 full exif
