The Great Blue allowed me to get just so close before deciding to jump-fly to another location just down the dam at Boggs Lake. For the Monochrome Weekly Theme. More b&w's from around the world here.
a blog spot for friends and family.

Looks like it lands in the nose :) Good shot however :)
Just in time. Good timing for action B&W photo.
Weird and wonderful to look at!
looks like he is a little top heavy...!..
They are such shy, wary creatures - but very beautiful! I love this evocative shot.
Amazing shot...but, it looks like its about to land! They are awkward looking on their take-offs...
fabulous capture!
I love herons and egrets, they are so prehistoric looking, elegant, graceful and yet awkward all at once .. this is a superb shot!
This is great. I never had a chance to capture photos with similar to this one. Perfectly captured.
