Green Heron 12 (Butorides virescens)

This is another full frame shot, (see Green Heron10, posted last night), you can see how used to people this bird is getting. It got so close, that I couldn't get it all in, and had to back off. Its a beautiful looking bird, it has some great markings/patterns on it, and I've enjoyed watching it twice now. I have over a thousand images of this bird, but dont worry folks, I wont be boring you all with them right now.
