Heron

[BWdem4life]

In recently created wetland site in Kenmore, WA



Unfortunately my camera phone was set to high efficiency 12MP at the time and it moved before I could change the settings to 24MP / most compatible.

It's a shame, but I have to keep on the other setting most of the time to keep from using too much memory and then when something like this happens I am usually unprepared.

1. Great Blue Heron.

Have them here in upstate NY.

2. It's still a very nice photo, BWdem4life.

I love these birds. When I lived in Virginia Beach, I would watch them through my sliding glass door in the dining room while they posed in the pond and looked for food. They are one of my favorite birds. 😍

4. Yet you WERE prepared to take a very nice photograph BWdem4life. And you did.

Excellent composition. Tall grass foreground, Heron standing tall, vegetation, running water, pretty rock formation background. Too bad the bird moved. Next time you'll get him.

I don't know how many times I've missed a good shot because I'd had the wrong settings. Good Try!
