Great Blue Heron

Posted by Karthik (Buffalo, United States) on 17 July 2008 in Animal & Insect.

This was taken at the Forest Lawn Cemetery in Buffalo. I have always wanted to photograph a heron. This was the closest I got to it. I was not carrying my 500mm lens with me, unfortunately. However, the bird was in a mood to pose and I did get a few good images.
Comments are welcome!!
