One leg stand Wading in Lake Galena Looking for food
Striking a pose Getting some snacks Heron and friends
Sleepy bird Attentive Wading in the Delaware River Canal
On the Delaware Canal Smell the roses Curly reflection
Hiding in the trees Ready for action And away we go!
The sentinel. Peace Valley Park. Fishing in Lake Galena In Lake Galena
Fishing in Lake Galena Looking for lunch Hunting
Success! Burp! Into the sunset
Graceful flier... In Lake Galena In Ridley Creek
In the Perkiomen creek Piercing eyes A siege of herons
Catching some rays Looking for lunch On the shore of Lake Galena
Posing for the camera By the ocean Taking off
Looking for lunch Intently watching Trying to stay warm
A mere snack Looking for something good to eat Bad hair day?
Looking for lunch Enjoying a midday snack A very blue heron...
Lunch time! Skillful fisher! Tall fellow.
Ready for takeoff! So graceful! On the hunt.
Taking off! Away we go! So graceful!
Flying away... Looking for food. Getting too close!
I'm outta here! Motionless hunter Always on the hunt.
Flying in... By the sea. Fishing.
Swooping by... Looking for lunch Against the orange sky.
Taking off. Did I miss something back there? Keeping his balance.
Time to fly! Still looking. Got one!
Stepping on the stones. Enjoying the shade. I see something...
Gaining altitude. Taking a closer look. Up on a tree.
Making its way around the stones. Reflections... Looking over its shoulder.
Up, up, and away! Gliding gracefully. Still looking.
Wading... Moving on... Intense looks!
