8/24/06 - Great Blue Heron

It was a critter morning.
I had to choose among three decent Great Blue Heron's for the PAD - this one plus http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65698406 & http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65698407 and I went with this one because of the more dramatic lighting
Also saw an ant on a gerbra - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65698405 - a bee on a thistle (ultra macro) - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65698409 and finally a great butterfly that I'm still trying to identify (help) - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/65698408

Nikon D70s
1/250s f/5.6 at 300.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
