How in the world did you ever capture this unbelievable shot? I've got some heron shots that I think are pretty darn good, but nothing like this. Superb work Janet. V++

Nicely captured (both of you). I wonder how in the heck birds like this can catch multiple fish like this. Amazing.

Laurie Hawkins		20-Apr-2011 23:42
I don't know what's more impressive - the fact that you captured this moment so well or that this GBH is such a neat eater! BV

Amazing!

Bob Pelkey		09-Jan-2008 03:38
The trick would be for the Heron not to lose its lunch. Commentary from you as to what happened next would be the other half of the story. Marvelous catch.

Karen Moen		13-Aug-2007 08:02
I think this is his puffin imitation! Lol! How did he manage to turn them into his mouth? Excellent wildlife image. Voted.

Coleen Perilloux Landry		13-Aug-2007 05:44
