Blue Heron Strolling On the Barnacles

I am thrilled that you liked yesterday's foggy beach shot. Thanks so much.
For the last several mornings that we have hiked on Washburne Beach early in the morning, we have startled a heron way down at the end. This morning I was ready for him with my camera out! This was shot at ISO 4000 but I thought it turned out pretty well nonetheless. I like how the heron was on a diagonal from the star fish.
Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs

My goodness, there's a lot of barnacles - do herons eat shellfish?

[Jane Pittenger]

@judithdeacon I don’t think so. I think he was just walking away to get more distance from me!

Great shot. Surprised that it can walk on that stuff.

What an interesting shot - the heron look to be in such an alien environment - the star fish really seem quite surreal in that image. :)

I like the way my eye is drawn in by the heron, then travels down to the choral and starfish. A great scene!
