Photographer's Notes
I thought that I might have made a mistake by taking my grandchildren with me on my afternoon photoshoot. They actually scared the shy heron that flew away from them and landed near me. This is one of the shots that I thankfully got of him! I was very thankful to my grandchildren, and they kept away from me for a little while!!!
Please enjoy.
Hand held and cropped using my new 70-300mm lens.
