The wingspan of a heron, to me, seems really large. In relation to its body it is very long, large– whatever adjective fits. I have some more images of this same heron taken moments before lift off. I was stalking this heron, as they are very shy, along a spot on the Duwamish River a few days ago. Finally, I guess he/she thought I was being a nuisance hiding behind tall grass making a clicking noise ( camera ). I will post some those images in the coming days.
Note: I pressed the limits of my 70-200mm lens on these images so some of the detail is less than stellar.
LOVE the pictures of this bird. Mine have never turned out so well!

Thanks! There is another posting of a heron from the same location that turned out nicely as well-perhaps a week or so back.
