Strange catch-best viewed large

Had to smile when I looked at this, not sure feathers are on the menu for Heron.

Great shot, well taken.

Nice shot! Perhaps he had caught a parrot fish? ;o)

I've never seen a heron in the flesh, he looks pretty majestic.

Super shot, love the dark background - love herons!

Excellent capture. Great detail and stands out so well against that dark background. Herons are such great characters. A fav for me.

Terrific capture, the dark background highlights the bird.

I love this guy. Great capture of the heron. I am never that lucky! FAV...love his pose and the little feather on his beak. Nice one.

@heidihp Hi Heidi, may seem a long way to go and wait but got to the park in St Albans in March/April and you will see a heron nesting site. Plenty of them there

[Glenn Mostert]

Nice shot, I don't think I have ever seen a Heron!

[Chris]

A beautiful capture of a beautiful creature.

I love how it's got such a dark background, really makes it stand out - Lucy

[Jan Hall]

This is great, I have never got a decent shot of a heron, they are so shy.

[Phil]

Wonderful detail - right down to the fluffy beak!
