Green Heron

Kensington Park, MI

Sayer and I went out shooting at Kensington Park.
While he learns to use his new camera with the
"Sigmonster"
I get to play with his older 1D, which has always taken
beautiful photos in his expert hands. It has quite a
learning curve for me, but I will keep practising and after
a few years, should be able to get better photos with it!
This Green Heron was very shy, hiding behind the grass, but
I am quite pleased with the way this photo came out.

Nice capture of this heron, Tricia. They are not usually very cooperative.

This turned out very well... it was such overcast and difficult shooting conditions.
