Maybe almost soaked, Michael :). Thanks!

Beautiful image of great, slightly damp specimen. Very well-timed.
Terry_O23-Oct-2014 03:17
BTW, Hal, I agree, they do tend to look menacing!

Thanks very much, Sally, Hal, and Fred for your much appreciated comments.
Sally, I wonder if your Oz heron is actually a Grey Heron - almost identical, but a
different species...

Excellent capture I wouldn't have passed it up either.

Glad you didn't just walk past Terry.
This is super shot of a fine specimen of your gb herons.
Of course it is neither but it looks rather angry or evil.

This is a great capture of one of my favourite birds.
Its very different to our Great Blue Herons with its feathers and markings.
