Great Blue Heron in a tree

Saw this heron in a tree at Alton Baker Park. I was able to work myself around to a spot about 25 feet away to get the shot. The image is only sharpened a bit, color is straight from the camera.
Of course, you know I love herons. So I am pleased to get some close shots.

Very nice Vern! The composition and sky-background coupled with the clarity of the image make this on of your best heron shots.

Isn't that pretty against that blue sky with the pine needles, too? Nice. And, he looks SO groomed! LOL.
