Heron's Little Catch

Chincoteague, Virginia

I took photos from the water's edge as the heron hunted.
It seemed to take little notice of me.

Wow Sayer! This is an amazing capture...razor sharp, pristine light and all the little details that put this over the top. Looks like it was in deep water.

Outstanding! Beautiful lighting. Plus excellent composition and detail. Love the heron's expression; plus your capture of the water droplets as he deals with the little fish.
