    Hello Roger: This is a very good series. The feather detail in Number 1 is particularly nice. What exactly is the heron having for lunch?

    Hi Roger, although the second one is complete, I keep going back to the fantastic detail in the first one wishing that we could see the entire bird.

    Nice set. The tern shot is awesome with a sharp, clear eye which isn't easy. The lighting on the skimmers is excellent. Quite a unique shot of a GBH with an identity crisis.

    Yes, I thought great blue herons ate only fish. But apparently not!

    Thanks everyone and with regards to seeing more of the bird in #2 that's all there was I was under a tree and the bird flew I only cropped a little off of the right I believe.
