Thanks @keithboone! Some days, the batteries outlive the sun :) Or at least I get a very late start to the day, so sunsets and silhouettes are the only options left! I really like silhouettes though, and this heron gave me a good show!
The fish was quite small, but I'm sure she made it up with quantity :) Herons seem to fish quite well at night, and I imaging they can do so even when it's cloudy, so their night vision must be stellar, and the fishies shiny!
I love it when the bird succeeds :) These herons were catching some big fish this past summer, like foot long ones and it was quite exciting to catch them on video! Now I need to find where I put those videos ;)
Great video capture! I loved how the bird appears in silhouette.

Gorgeous! Master fisherman! In general, it's so funny to watch birds catch fish.

Thanks @ratel :)
oops
Great job.
Perfect silhouette.
Thanks @bluefinstudios :)
I always feel proud when I can capture a heron capturing a fish! A vicarious victory ;)
they are great hunters... I can spend quite a bit of time watching them stalk a fish!
