Herons are amazing. They are fascinating in their majestic beauty. I guess the weather has warmed up and they are headed north, I don’t.know if they migrate or not. Such awesome photos Timothy. Love them.
Great captures and I like the Terminator quote coming with the last image. We don’t have this heron aroound here, but his long-legged cousin, the Gray Heron, often puts an end to always the biggest goldfishes and prized Kois.
We don’t have a lot of Heron out here, but I’ve heard in other parts of the country they can be a real problem for fish ponds. They do eat the bullfrogs out here. The bullfrogs have decimated our leopard frog population.
Pteros take flight. The one that turned around, in your direction, either it objected to your photo-taking (i.e., capturing its soul) or saw you as a tasty morsel.
That’s a very good question, Resa. It’s sunset when I to these shats, but I see them in broad daylight. Maybe they are supposed to be Knight Herons and no one caught the K.
So beautiful 😩
I love seeing flying birds very closely 😃
Great shots
Thanks, Vincent.
You are welcome 🙏
Such an impressive bird!
Thanks, Laurie.
Pretty bird. Love the underlight on the last photo.
Thanks, Bruce.
Beautiful photos, Tim, especially the last one with the sun illuminating the heron’s wings and undersides.
Thanks, Lavinia. He flew south and then turned around and flew by me again heading north.

Thanks, Holly. I think they stop by on their way north. I don’t see them in the winter, but I do see them in the spring and fall.
I guess it’s that time then. Gosh, they are beautiful!
That last one is amazing. We don’t see them out here but enjoy them when we get back to Pennsylvania.
Cool! Never seen one in flight before.
Thanks, Teri.
Marvelous images. Like others, I was very taken with the last photo in the montage.
Thanks, Maj & Sher.

So in case of the bullfrogs, it is a good attribute of them, always to be looking for the biggest deal.
Beautiful.
Thanks, rabirius.
The last photo I like the most 🙂
I’d love to be able to fly…big bird to see so close by…difficult to capture I’m sure 🤓 happiness your way ~ Hedy
Thanks, Hedy.
Great photographs Tim!
Thanks, Tiffany.

Happy Mom’s Day to your Laurie. 🙂
Thanks, David.
Great shots!
Thanks, Kendall.
Welcome!
He was having a ball, wasn’t he? Great shots, Tim!
Thanks, Marina. He seem to be having a good time. Although he was fishing before I disturbed him walking by.
🙂
Great shot, you really have a good eye for details 🍁💕
Thanks, Maples Leaves.
It looks like daytime.
Why do they call it a Night Heron???
That’s a very good question, Resa. It’s sunset when I to these shats, but I see them in broad daylight. Maybe they are supposed to be Knight Herons and no one caught the K.
Oh, I like that!
Knights of the World’s Table!
Or Knights of the bird’s table. Or Knights of the World’s birds table. We could go on all night about knights.
