Flying Blue Heron

Thought I'd take a short drive to the local State Park this morning. In October I was here getting some pictures of fall tree colors. Turned camera on and no SD card so back home I went. Decided to go right back. Maybe this happened for a reason because as a walked to the water I think I spooked a Grey Heron that took flight for the other side of the lake. Brought my camera up and started shooting . Not sure what kind of picture I would get since no time to check anything on the camera. I was pleasantly surprised to have gotten some fairly decent shots. Was able to get some shots of him once he landed to. He really blends in with the landscape so if he wouldn't have flown across the water I probably would have never seen him. I will definitely now carry an extra card in my camera bag, just lucky I wasn't too far from the house.
Beautiful capture. Welcome to 365
