A Fine Catch!

This morning, I watched a Great Blue Heron and a Great Egret fishing not far from each other. The heron starting moving forward slowly. I thought it was going to chase the egret away. Instead, all of a sudden it struck and came up with a large fish. This is one of a few shots I got of the bird and its prey. It has been pretty foggy here for a few days, and was again this morning.
