The blue heron had managed to get himself nice and safe in a spot that I couldn't get an angle on - nice and low down the bluff - but his head was sticking up quite alert. I can pretend I wanted a portrait.
You don't have to pretend about a portrait, it is a portrait and a very good one I might add.... Love those Great Blue Herons and yes they are masters in finding spots we can't get too! One of my fav's.....
