photoartflightGreat Blue Heron Coming In!
This Great Blue Heron was way across the lake and was not far from the opposite shoreline. After hearing a loud bang, probably a firecracker, it flew right into us. I thought it was an interesting landing series of photos.I just selected a few out of the 30 or so in the series.
Great Blue Heron Landing. #12 in the sequence. Canon EOS 1D MkIV, Canon 400mm f/4 DO IS lens, Canon 2X Series II Teleconverter, f/8, 1/500 sec, ISO 640
