A Portrait For Those Who March To A Different Drum....
At a local lake I saw this Tri-colored Heron on the bottom concrete step leading to the water. I set up supporting the camera with a concrete railing, as I peered down and focused the bird craned it neck to see what was disturbing it's peace. I clicked a couple frames before it lowered it's head to a more normal position. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.
