Strolling The Lake by lesip

Strolling The Lake

Took Lisa with me to fill the feeders at Black Hills and roam the Lake. Spotted this little guy in the water from the parking lot. He was so little I thought maybe a shorebird. Couldn't believe our luck at all the shots we got of him. In the water, walking the shore and grass till he finally had enough and flew in a tree. Got that shot to. Once we were close enough he sure looked like a heron but he was so little compared to the Herons I have seen. He is a heron, a Green Heron.
I love how you got him mid stride and his foot raised. Lovely composition!
