I get super excited when I see things like that and half the time my pics turn out extremely blurry or, by the time I pull my camera up, I miss the shot!! However, this shot is fantastic!!! I like the water as a background and he is a gorgeous bird!!
Magz... I love this.. I am fav-ing it .. I love the profile on this guy too.. he makes my proboscis pale in comparison.. I assure you not such an easy feat!!! beautiful shot!!!
I have a friend that lost her koi from her pond to these guys, she actually caught one with fish in mouth. Love his surroundings. Ours are found at the slough or in open fields hunting gophers & mice. Wonderful pic!
@molizard I do have a series of pictures when a heron caught and ate a fish. Kinda creepy but cool. I have never seen these guys in fields, only in ponds and creeks. I'm sure they could clear out a koi pond in no time.
