Grey Heron

Amazing catch going down - This is what that big fish looked like in the neck. It didn't move for around 15 minutes after this meal, it was stuffed.

Amazing catch Pt 2 - this fish was so heavy the heron had to keep resting it on the log.

Today's prize goes to - this grey heron with very large fish. It took twenty minutes to turn it and swallow it.

They call me the count....Count Dracula...Mu ha, mu ha, mu ha ha ha.......sorry not been on much busy at work and this is a flying visit as son is up from Nottingham.....Have a scary night all!!!!!

This is probably my best shot ever, the guy just stood there eyeing us as we crept closer.

Grey Heron Fishing

this fish was playing a dangerous game!!!

We saw a lot of Grey Herons, but I didn't take many pictures of them. It wasn't a bird the guide got our boat pilot to stop for, so we didn't get all that close and were rarely still when we saw them. Still, I thought I'd share at least one, just to show how many heron species we did see.

well if only my brain reacted as quick as my hands.i always forget to change my settings when something unexpected happens.in this cause i think it may have been my exposure.these grey herons are great to watch and i think quite territorial.
