Heading For Cover!

When I saw this Great Blue Heron, it had already seen me first! I was walking in the Fern Ridge Wildlife Area a short time ago when I was surprised by this heron as it fled from a close by pond to head for cover. I thought it looked good with the colorful background.

The long telephoto lens at short range made for very limited DOF. But I liked the effect.

1/1000s f/8.0 at 300.0mm iso2000 full exif

The telephoto effect makes it look like it’s about to run smack into the tree
