1150. heron hide and seek

a blue heron takes shelter
from my camera 🦊❤️

We cross over the creek on a stone bridge daily. On many day a beautiful Blue Heron is in the creek right below us. It seems that no matter how prepared we are with our cameras at the ready, the heron knows we are approaching and it launches and takes off and evades us. If you look closely at today’s picture you will see a tiny luminous, candy cane shaped figure among the foliage. That is the heron teasing us with it un-photographical position. One of these days we will get a great photograph of the majestic creature in full flight as it strafes the water in an attempt to again evade us. 🦊❤️
