Wild Heron

There will be quite a few great blue heron pics over the next couple of days. I think the young ones are coming out of the nests.

…sailors warning. As the quote ends. And in fact this day ended with severe thunderstorms.
Purples
Not real happy with the pics. They were on the move. I startled them and they ran across the plants into the thick part.

“Another glorious day, the air as delicious to the lungs as nectar to the tongue” – John Muir
The trumpet vine was about 25 feet off the ground in a sabal palm sitting in front of an oak tree. Almost missed it.

Sun Up
I took my wide angle lens out for a walk last Saturday. All my other dawn pics have been with a telephoto – hopefully you can get some idea of the size with these. And I didn’t miss any good bird pics on the way.
However an important tip, if you bring a lens case with a belt attachment — wear a belt!
