Tri Colored Heron

This little fellow was using his wings to shade the sunlight so he could better see his prey in the water. He too was not bashful, and just went ahead fishing while I snapped several photos of him not very far away in the seat of my truck.

Wow, this looks like you are in the water with him and not in your truck! This one is by-far one of my favorites!

Magnificent detail. The white under his wings almost look like fur.

Great detail in the wings. You caught a great reflection too.
