Playing with my new lens (thanks Ron) down by the Rappahannock River. Two more pictures of this guy here: http://www.pbase.com/ccasey/rappahannock_river
This heron and I surprised each other the first time I came around a large rock. I ran across the heron again a little while later and he seemed content to let me sit quietly and snap a few pictures. A few river kayakers came in for a closer look and scared it off though.
